Life Is A Choice

Life is a choice, so therefore CHOOSE LIFE!

Choose to live. Choose to fulfill your destiny~ and your dreams.

Choose to laugh, to love... to live. Take that new job, come out of your bat cave, walk out into the sun, turn your face to it and give thanks that you're still here.

I know many people have guilt. Some of us have survivor's guilt, some of us have guilt over how we were raised, or over how we are raising our children. I personally don't know anyone who doesn't carry some type of guilt. There's no reason to. Let it go, don't worry or as a friend of mine says "Don't be concerned". Easy to say isn't it? Even easier to do, I promise. Just let it go...

Survivor's guilt is the hardest one of all and I won't lie to you, it takes time to learn to live with it. For some it's worse than for others. You survived, they didn't. Whoever that they may be: your buddy, your cousin, your someone.


Sometimes it's guilt about someone we've walked away from or about someone who has walked away from us. It happens, at times people are only in your life for a reason or a season.

"People come into your life for a Reason, a Season, or a Lifetime.

When you know which one it is for a person, you will know what to do for that person.

When someone is in your life for a REASON,

it is usually to meet a need you have expressed.

They have come to assist you through a difficulty,

to provide you with guidance and support,

to aid you physically, emotionally, or spiritually.

They may seem like a Godsend, and they are!

They are there for the reason you need them to be.

Then, without any wrong doing on your part, or at an inconvenient time,

this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end.

Sometimes they die.

Sometimes they walk away.

Some times they act up and force you to take a stand.

What we must realize is that our need has been met,

our desire fulfilled, their work is done.

The prayer you sent up has been answered, and now it is time to move on.

Some people come into your life for a SEASON,

because your turn has come to share, grow, or learn.

They bring you an experience of peace,

or make you laugh.

They may teach you something you have never done.

They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy.

Believe it! It is real! But, only for a season.

LIFETIME relationships teach you lifetime lessons:

things you must build upon in order to have a solid emotional foundation.

Your job is to accept the lesson, love the person,

and put what you have learned to use in all other relationships and areas of your life.

It is said that love is blind but friendship is clairvoyant.

Thank you for being a part of my life!"

You're a survivor, you made it, you have a survivor's spirit and if you're reading this I'm willing to bet a warrior's sprirt as well. You're tough, you're strong and most importantly... you're still here.... so choose to live the life that you still have. Live life to it's fullest~ and don't let go of anything... but the guilt. From the ashes does rise the phoenix.
