Question

what can we decide when there are villains in our lives? we decide how dark the story will get. we decide who the villains will be. we decide what actions they can take. we decide how to respond to them.

Explanation:

When there are villains (challenging people/situations) in our lives, we don't control how dark the story gets (external events can drive darkness), who the villains are (they exist independently), or their actions (they act on their own). However, we have agency over our own responses to them. So the correct option is the one about deciding how to respond.

Answer:

D. We decide how to respond to them.
