The road

I have more control over my life than I want to admit.

Imagine admitting that I am responsible for most of the things that happen to me? 

Many of us give away our power.   We say god did it, in spite of the fact that we also say he gives us free will.  We say fate did it because we don't understand how it happened.  We say lots of things, but the truth is that most of the time it was me, myself, and I who chose one thing over.

A series of choices become the road map to now.

If doing something different will improve my life, I want to know what it is. Hiding my bad choices from myself is both dangerous and counter productive.  If anyone deserves to know, it's me!

I may not have the will power to change, but that doesn't change the truth.  

Not having a car does not mean I can't go to South Carolina.  It only means I need to find alternate ways to travel.   The same thing is true about most of the decisions I make.  As long as I take responsibility for looking at them head on, life may not be easy, but it will be better.
