The Power of Choice

 


The sweetest words were said to me today and I said half-joking, mostly serious, "I will re-read your words when I need reminded...

you are truly a woman which all women should be cast from...

His words are a warm hug of friendship and respect. Like a gentle rain in the springtime and me a flower basking in it's warm shower. 

I'm grateful for lessons learned in life when given a choice, I chose what matters to me. I feel more free saying words I feel versus the internal suffocation of leaving words unsaid. There is a quiet confidence that comes with being at peace with myself, speaking my truth. 

No, I cannot control what happens in life, but I chose to control the way I respond. That is where the power is.
