Some weeks, it can feel as though others make all the decisions regarding how and with whom you spend your time. The slow driver in front of you dictates your speed, the cold weather dictates your activities, your children dictate your mood … and it can feel as though you must fight for even a small morsel of control.
But who is really in control? And must it be a fight?
I believe we mustn’t give in to the thought that life happens to us – that we are merely puppets in the hands of others. Though I believe in a destiny for all, I also believe we are active participants in how we experience and reach this destiny.
Whether you believe in a God, a higher power, or just yourself, try to remember …
Every day is a choice … what choices are you making today?
Two Paths by Andrew Kazmierski
It’s very considerate that you allowed for other beliefs, or non-belief in a supernatural…. I believe you’re right about our choices, too, even if the only choice we have is related to our perspective of things, we can choose to see something other than negative in most situations. Beautiful picture, too, nice choice. Good job, Miss Questioningsoul. Thank you.
I know this is an older post, but I had to msg you and say this hits home for sure.
Peace,

Thank you for your comment! I go back to your posts over and over again as they remind me of moments and thoughts I want to capture and savor … not only today, but for always. Happy New Year!
Thank you for your wonderful encouragement. This is going to be a great new year!
I wonder about you every now and then. Was checking my blog subscriptions last night and thought it had been quite a while since I had seen you here. I hope all is going well with life. Would love to see you here again sometime. Take care, Scott.
Hi Scott! Thank you for stopping by once again. It has been so long since I wrote, but decided to hop on and begin the New Year with a thought. Hopefully, this will lead to further inspiration and action … but I’ve told myself that before
Happy New Year!
Hello again, Miss Questioningsoul…you are very welcome for stopping by. And I am very happy to see you here and there, writing again. I will look forward to your new posts with this new year. Have a great one!
