One of these would be the choices of school children are limited to the authorities' decisions and rules. This is also true of the military. These are just two of many circumstances that can limit one's own personal choices. However, no matter what our choices are today, they are ultimately creating our future because every choice that we make will either cause us to be blessed or cursed. Another way to put it, is that things will get better or worse for us.
All choices have consequences.
These consequences will be for our betterment or will work to destroy us. We are also responsible for our choices. For instance, most movies have glamorized many things that are bad for us and have not generally shown the destructive results of smoking, drinking, adultery, fornication, gambling, abortion, etc. A loved one gets lung cancer and is dying. We can take the time to pray and study the candidates positions and vote accordingly or we can refuse to vote.
