Freedom of the Powerless

There is great freedom in understanding that we are powerless over everything except the choices that we make. The true beauty of this is that even all of our choices, good and bad will have outcomes that are out of our control. We can begin evolving by making little changes and taking little risks in our lives that will ultimately bring us closer to God. We will gain insight on our own unique intuitions by following them without expectations, enjoying life's great mystery.

Our own vision of a perfectly sunny day may be hampered by a drastic rainstorm. Our choice then becomes clear...live in the misery that our expectations have not been met or go outside and jump in a puddle. Today my choice will be to splash around freely, basking in the fact that The Universe had other plans. The rain is needed to nourish the soil that feeds fantastic life into the blooming flowers and flowing rivers. We can let passion grow within us no matter what circumstance comes our way. Freedom comes in the choices we make, we learn to love by accepting all of God's results openly and willingly.

this is so true- i have begun the process of making changes and while sometimes i feel like i make a change and then go running back- the hanges that i have been making are good- they are fun- and i am so enjoying it- i know that i spent many years doing the same thing over and over but yet thought the result would be different- well-i can still do that- not to the extreme- but getting caught in the "safety" of what i have- so today i choose new- i choose life- i choose fun!!! LIVE LAUGH LOVE!!! this year's goal!!
