The Right Direction

It Is A Choice

By Ruth Elizabeth StiffPublished 2 months ago 1 min read
It Is A Choice

“It is not in the stars

to hold our destiny

but in ourselves.”

This quote is encouraging us

to take control of our own lives.

It is a choice.

This is encouraging

self-determination.

To hold our own lives

in our own hands.

It is a choice.

We never want to limit our opportunities

by ‘believing’ that we have no control

over what we do in and with our lives.

It is a choice.

Whilst external forces can have a part

in our everyday living,

we always want to make sure

that we have the power over our own lives.

It is a choice.

Free will to manage our lives

is a basis of human nature.

We alone have the power

over our own lives

to choose, to believe and to “live”

as we want to live.

It is a choice.

Having our ‘dream life’ in our minds

will make sure we are going

in the right direction.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
