What is one simple change you could make right now to get you one step closer to living the life you want to live?
Why make the change? How do you think it will result in getting you closer to the life you want to live? Are you willing to commit to it right now? Do you need support from others? What’s your strategy to make the change?
Awareness of choice is a key distinction for me living a life of peace and freedom.
Without choice, I tend to fall prey to my own and others victim stories. ie. If a friend continues going down a path of unhealthy behavior , and my attempts to be of assistance to that person go unheaded , I have a choice , I can get wrapped up in that persons story and get dragged down, or I can CHOOSE APPRECIATING, that person and the drama they are creating.. Plus, I am finding out experiencially the more I choose to appreciate , the less I want to make myself or others wrong . Growth becomes more of a flow, vs. the elbow greese of effort and struggle.
It seems that the happenings of life are just happenings, in and of themself are meaningless. And into this meaningless ground of being I am free to choose to create a life of meaning and purpose coming from mySELF. Choosing not life doing me, but choosing doing life.
Choosing knowing its all a game, and none of it exist in deep dreamless sleep. "thanks Ramana"
but I got to admit , the Detroit Lions winning only one playoff game in over 50 years seems to bother me. lol
