Choices we make.

What I want to know is do we all have the same choices and the same mechanism that selects them?

Is it possible that some of us have choices while others do not?

What makes some of us change our choices and others continue selecting the same ones over and over like ordering the same thing from the menu of life?

Is there a moment in time when all the choices we have been selecting seem distasteful and we then meander to another part of the menu?

What happens to us inside that creates the desire for something new?

Something changes inside of us, something happens to the mechanism that chooses.

Looking back with 20/20 vision, I can see how a new truth landed inside of me, demolishing my old choice maker.

All my old choices seemed useless, inauthentic and utterly distasteful.

Those choices created an illusion that deflected reality.
In order to walk hand in hand with the truth of reality I had to change all my choices.

So, was it that choices were limited before or was the truth limited?

Was my mechanism broken or designed to create illusion?

Is it possible that we choose based upon our level of awareness, that the choices are always there, we just are unaware?

All I can know is that my choices are just as limited now, for I feel akin to sticking with my truths, to being authentic with my feelings, to aligning myself with reality.

My old options are still available but I have lost the taste for them.

Guess at the end of the day we all make choices based upon what we know, what we feel and our own inner truths.

It isn’t that the choices are limited; it is that we limit our choices.

And each of our lives is reflected of the choices we make.

    I teared up when I read your mom’s birthday letter. Now at least I know what I would wish my mom to say.
    Regarding your post of Who is in Control? — I had been pondering for days now how it is that such a willful person like me can be overcome so much of the time by inaction, and how I can possibly overturn this for the upcoming year. Now I know.
    Thank you for these insights.

    Maria, was the letter titled “God’s Peace”?
    When I began that letter I didn’t know what my deeper feelings were about her and was surprised how it unfolded.
    Writing has been a great tool to figure me out, to sort out feelings, to express feelings and to help me understand me. I highly recommend it.
    As for the 9 times the pull of negativity, we can overcome that, but it will take effort. Just knowing you are up against a strong power helps. It also helps when you are strong willed.
    So am I. And I have used my stubborness to my advantage.
    May you use your willfulness to get the life you want. Focus on taking care of you, be your best advocate.
    When you said, “Now I Know” I hope that means you know now what to do to overcome!
