Words for Thought

In the blink of an eye we can change our lives. Sometimes the change is welcomed and embraced, other times it's forced change. Most of the time in one way or another we make the choice for ourselves. Good or bad the change ultimately resulted from a choice that we made at one time or another. Does this not show us how very important our choices are? It should, but some don't see it. Those that do, consider their choices carefully. They weight the pros and cons of their decisions before making them.

I don't regret many of my choices, but I do regret a few. I made a few that were selfish and inconsiderate. I made a few with intent to cause pain, because I had been caused pain. That is neither here or there, and is all in the past. What is important is I won't repeat the past, any part of it. I love my life and wouldn't change a thing about it.

There are people that refuse to change. Either because they don't know how, or just because they don't want to. These people spend their lives in a rut, because with change comes growth which is an essential part of living. So essentially people that refuse to change, are refusing to live. Sad isn't it?

Each day is a gift, there are no do overs. So live it to the fullest, love without bounds. Relax and take a nap if you want to, or get out and enjoy the sunshine. Don't live your life for anyone but you. Spending all your time trying to please someone else is just a waste of time.
