to decide or to choose?

interesting this is. the distinction between choice and decision.....is apparently a clear one, though most of us would interchange the two in varying contexts. Bert highlighted this during our cell group discussion the other day..... where decision involves eliminating 'options', but choice doesnt. when i decide, i decide based on something......but when i choose, i just choose. just so. not because plan b isnt feasible. i read something while looking it up that was put nicely. choice implies freedom, while decision implies selection. choice is more of a capacity, while decision is more of a result.
hmm.
