Its like an explosion. The things we do everyday that impact our tomorrows. Small things can turn into gigantic successes or losses. Gigantic things can demolish into nothing, like when someone steps on a child's dream. Its the decisions we create in our lives that depict where we will take ourselves, who we decide to be around on a daily basis and the mental set we live or step away from everyday. These are all factors that impact our day to day lives.
Creating a life for yourself and for your family is a lifelong decision. It grows throughout the years as things change and people get older. It isn't just one decision that impacts how we live our lives, its constantly making the right ones to ensure we all live a long, fulfilling, healthy & happy life with the people we love. Some things seem nearly impossible at times, and at other times, we look back on those seemingly impossible endeavors and wonder why we made it to be that way. Approaching anything with a clear & sound mind will not only aid in making it easier on you, but less stressful to those around you as well. It can be anything. From "Who didn't pack the kids lunches?" to "Should we file for bankruptcy?" Each step leading up to these events slowly brought us to them. Realizing what steps we should have avoided or which ones we need to take all come down to how our attitudes were in taking or missing a step or 2.
We create our own environments. We get the choice to decide what happens now. The popular saying "Its a 2 way street" applies to people on both sides at all times. When you 50/50 the 2 way street, there is a delicate or disruptive balance brought into any situation that can be handled in one or two ways. Some people will always want to make it more difficult & argue that their way is right without hearing the other side, and others will simply decide together, to take the appropriate actions, make the right choices and take the situation to a positive level.
I choose to live my days as though my future is here right now. I'm a single, 28 year old independent, very fortunate woman with 2 dogs & a roof over our heads to care about & make sure our quality of life is taken care of appropriately. Sometimes things happen that make you sit back & re-evaluate your life and what needs to be done at that point. How can I make the quality of my life better? What can I do to help my family or friends? How can I help other people make the quality of their lives better? Do we really NEED this or do we just WANT it? What children can I be a role model for? How can I help someone who doesn't know me? I have so many questions, just like the rest of you, that run through my head on a daily basis just like these. What I choose to do about them is entirely up to me & my attitude approaching them.
I choose to love, help, motivate, inspire, cooperate, listen, learn and genuinely give to those not so fortunate as some of us. The payback is always 10 fold. I don't have a thing in this world I regret because I LEARNED from the things I've done & I chose to change my situation when needed. My approach is not like your approach, but we can all decide to make life better by realizing that what we do or don't do today, impacts our tomorrows. Your life is what you have made it to be. Where you are or aren't right now is because of the decisions you made, good or bad. Change is ALWAYS an option. Don't be afraid to ask for help, learn to humble yourself and focus on what you need for your life and the people in it. Each path we take, will lead us to where we want to go. Choose your path, and choose it wisely.
