The Choose-Your-Own-Adventure series allowed (allows) readers to determine how the story would unfold for them. The fate of the central character (whose shoes the reader fills) depends on the reader's decision, presented at the bottom of every page or two.
Judaism, in a sense, operates much like this series. We are not prisoners of our fate. Rather, we have the opportunity to grow, to evolve, to learn from past behaviors and to incorporate our reactions into new approaches to how we lead our lives. The choices are in our hands-- how do we want our story to unfold this year?
