Make a Choice - be inspired, be the change

To laugh often and much, to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children, to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends, to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others, to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch… to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived.  This is to have succeeded!  - Emerson


life is beautiful. everyday we breathe, we have the opportunity to do good.  we have the opportunity to make a choice to be a tool of healing or a tool of pain.  make a choice to be helpful. make a choice to smile, love, laugh, be present, witness another's growth and development on their path.  my father is very sick, my sister is a pain in the you know where, my patience is being tested.  i am making a choice to be a tool of love. i am making a choice not to be afraid, fearful or negative, but to love, offer love and a gentle touch.
