LIFE-CHANGING LESSONS I’VE LEARNED/LEARNING- Everyday Is A Choice To Start
Our choices determine if we are going to move forward and get out of bed or if we are going to stay were we are and shut down. Our choices determine if we are going to blame everyone and Santa Clause for our situation and the reason why our life is going bad or if we take the next step forward regardless of what has happened in our lives. The fact is every last one of us has been hurt by someone and every last one of us has hurt someone else. Perhaps not in the same way, but we all have hurt someone. So at some point, we must release the hold of feeling like a victim. It is very freeing. Actually, it is very empowering. But it is a choice.
Each day we have a choice to believe that our past was a burden placed in our lives simply to provide an everlasting obstacle and reminder that we can never have a purpose, hope or future or our past is part of our story meant to be used as part of our purpose for our future hope.
Each day, we have a choice to believe that each day is an ongoing torment of suffering or worry or an opportunity to learn, grow and change direction and ourselves and admit that our way is not the only way and be “forever” students instead of stuck, safe professors in a life that was never meant to be safe.
Each day, we have a choice to consistently look at ourselves and the world through the lens of “what’s wrong” and “something is lacking” or choose to believe that our feelings are rarely reality and we must allow others the freedom to be who they are whether we agree or not. We certainly do not have to agree or endorse their behavior or platforms but we cannot force our opinion on them.
So today, what will you choose?
Take care,
Charlotte
