Choices can sometimes be 'right or wrong'... But not always. Sometimes the choice is genuinely ours to make without too much agonising over the morality of it all...

Eat someone else's chocolate (stealing) - is WRONG! (Don't do it.)

Deciding whether to buy some chocolate of your own? Well, if you're trying to stick to a diet, you might call this failure - giving in to temptation, but it is genuinely YOUR CHOICE. If you don't stick to you're own diet - that's entirely your own decision...

As for me, I don't steal. But I do eat (my own) chocolate.

Of course, there are moral choices about whether I should spend my money on chocolate - or whether I should put it to some more noble use?
Perhaps I should buy the chocolate and then share it with someone?
But, all in all, these choices are at least my decision to make.
