This Way & That

We always have the choice & free will to chose to go this way or that way. Many times in life these decisions come like instinct. Many others we stop when we get to the corner or decision & look back at where we have come from & then we look ahead at our options & step toward the direction we feel drawn. I fully believe that this can be a good thing...great thing for us to feel drawn to action in our lives. There is no need to "over think" things all the time, but we do have to accept the fact that we are all human & can make mistakes.

The simple fact is that just because we act is not why we make mistakes. The reasons we make mistakes, when we make mistakes, is when we fail to realize that something other than out best judgment is leading us. This can be for a multitude of reasons, but I feel that one of the major reasons is emotion. We, I am, are emotional people & sometimes it is difficult to detach from our emotions to ensure that we make the best decisions for our lives.

This is one of the greatest lessons I was ever taught when I was young by one of the wisest men I have ever known my grandpa Roy Matthews. I am proud to have known him for many years & happy to be his grandson may he rest in PEACE. This lesson is one that we can all gain from though. When we come to those corners in our lives & are making decisions that will shape our lives, we need to take the time to pause & really analyze our feelings behind our choices. This way we can ensure that we make the best decisions for our lives.

Over the past year, I have been on a journey to regain touch with my goals in life. I took a hard look at where I am & where I want to be. I made a decision that is going to allow me to help thousands of people in my life to come. It was a hard decision that meant leaving my comfort zone & venturing onto unsure ground, cutting my strings if you will, & allowing myself to fly. I do so knowing that if anything does happen along the way I can land back on the firm foundation & rely on the great people I have in my life. Although the time is not quite right yet to fully divulge the decision I have made, I will share it soon. So, I guess I share this much just to provoke you to entertain the question in your head & share some of the wisdom that helped me make my decision. Are you where you want to be? If not, why? What have you learned & how can you use what you have learned to get back on your road. Peace, LOVE, & Happiness to you all!!!

Bless You!
