what will you choose?
Just like everyone alive
Your days will be full of events –
threads, as it were,
weaving your life into a tapestry
There will be days of great joy and ones of overwhelming sorrow
Good days
Bad days
Medium days
Average days
Snow days
Hazy days
day after day after day
until they end
and you move on
All your days you will have circumstances to accept and embrace
or reject and avoid
to stay or leave
to fly or fear
Some to let go
some to overcome
some to enjoy
some to live through
Life is not about being fair
Life is about winning with the cards you hold
Winning doesn’t mean being rich, famous
or being born with a pedigree
Winning means living up to your own very unique, personal best
Winning means experiencing and inhabiting
love, peace and joy
You’ll be as happy as you decide to be
You will be as healthy as is possible based on what you decide to do
and the genes you were born with
You’ll choose to accept or reject what is offered
You’ll do what you want to do
Go where you want to go
Keep holding on to what is most important to you
– no matter if it makes you better –
or if it destroys you –
You’ll love who you love
Be who you are
You will be worth as much as you decide you are
You will judge others based on your own insecurities,
and your unchallenged beliefs
You will have as much love as you allow inside you
You will have as much of God as you seek to find
You will inhabit your life –
or not
All this will have nothing to do with your circumstances
It won’t matter how much money you have,
your gender,
or the color of your skin
It will all be about your choices
Always,
and only,
about your choices
