BOBBEE BEE: CHOICES?

"Choices made, whether bad or good, follow you forever and affect everyone in their path one way or another.”
Deliberate decision making is a life skill that must be taught. Our lives are the sum total of all the choices we have made and will make. But what does decision really mean? Have you ever considered the root word in decide? It’s “cide”. Cide originates from the Latin word caedere meaning “to kill”. Here are some other words that have the same root:
Homocide
Suicide
Genocide
Pesticide
Fungicide
There are hundreds more, but the point is they all mean to cut off or kill something. So when we decide, what are we killing? We are killing off all of the other options. Our decisions can either kill progress or stagnation.
