Its My Choice

Photo Credit: Carrie Butler photography

We are constantly learning.  On the My Mind’s Eye blog today, we are all taking a look back at what we learned in the past year.  What is the biggest thing I learned in 2009?

It’s my choice.  I thought I already knew this.  It’s been reinforced to me more and more this year.

“I can’t choose what someone else says or does.

I can only choose my actions and how I react to theirs.

I choose whether or not I give someone the power to affect me, to control me.

It’s my choice to choose to be happy or sad.

I choose how I look at the world.

Bad things happen to good people.

Others make choices that affect me.

How I react to all that is my choice!

And I choose to be happy!”
