Chance or Choice?

This is from my friend (AD). Something very meaningful

Chance or Choice?
I CHANCED upon this short post which is suprisingly similiar to what I personally feel, hence I CHOSE to share it with all my friends. =)

When we meet the right person to love when we're at the right place at the right time, that's chance.
When you meet someone you're attracted to, that's not a choice, that's chance.
Being caught up in a moment (and there's a lot of couples who get together because of this) is not a choice.That's also a chance.

The difference is what happens afterwards.

Will you take that infatuation, that crush, that mind-blowing attraction to the next level?
That's when all sanity goes back, you sit down and contemplate whether you want to turn this into a concrete relationship or just a fling.

If you decide to love a person, even with his (or her) faults, that's not a chance.That's choice.
When you choose to be with a person, no matter what,that's choice.
Even if you know there are many people out there who are more attractive, smarter, cuter and richer than him or her, and yet, you decide to love them just the same, that's choice.

Infatuation, crushes, attraction comes to us by chance.
But true love that lasts is truly a choice.
A choice that we make.

There's a beautiful quote that I believe is so true about this:
"Fate brings you together, but it's still up to you to make it happen."

We came to the world not to find someone perfect to love,
BUT to learn how to love an imperfect person perfectly.
