God Given Daisies — by
Conscious
Choice
The other day I read an article in Focused Attention an on line e-zine. http://www.focusedattention.com/
The article was called "They're Doing the Best They Can." I thought about all the elderly people in our lives who can no longer do the things they used to, or remember things they once could. Some get angry and disagreeable, some are just sad or depressed.
At the end of the article was this quote:
"Remember, the shortest path to a happy
life is found through conscious choice."
That quote stayed on my mind all day. I wrote to Beth Banning and Neill Gibson at Focused Attention and asked them if they had written it and if I could have permission to use it. They said yes.
I would suggest everyone post that quote around their home. Keep the saying in your car, purse and pocket, and memorize it.
It will change your life.
Yes, if you make a conscious choice you can achieve almost anything you want in life. Start making conscious choices. Think about that… Not just making a choice, but making a conscious choice in all things.
Most people say "I want success and I want to be happy!" Well, if you make a conscious choice, you can be happy, and that is being successful.
If you make a conscious choice no one can steal your blessings, or rob you of your joys.
Making a conscious choice you can even love the
unlovable and they will not be able to push your buttons. You know which ones...Those who make you retaliate,
yell back, and say ugly things. You can
make a conscious choice to bite your tongue, lift your eyes, heart and mind to
the skies, and say "Thank you God for allowing me to know the difference, and knowing
that I can make a conscious choice to love."
Happy Valentines Day!
