For as complicated as this life can sometimes seem, it is also filled with an abundance of gloriously simple choices. Here are just a few to get your mind going...
1. You can complain, or you can act.
2. You can stand still, or you can move forward towards your future.
3. You can see what others have and feel sorry for yourself, or you can appreciate all the gifts and blessings that surround you daily.
4. You can speak in anger, or you can speak in love.
5. You can judge, or you can accept.
6. You can tear down, or you can build up.
7. You can degrade, or you can advocate.
8. You can ignore, or you can educate.
9. You can deny, or you can believe.
10. You can silently watch the world pass you by, or you can get out there and make a difference.
I think too often we limit ourselves by our narrow thinking. Whenever we find ourselves feeling disengaged, discouraged, or dejected, I challenge us all to try to flip the script on our own thoughts and do what is within our power to change the course of our own lives and, in turn, the lives of those around us, in ways both powerful and beautiful.
Be empowered, friends. This life is a beautiful journey...
