Faced With Choice

 

"People have to choose the way they want to be

in the world.  It is important to give people the

space to find their way."

Daily Om 

Often, we find our lovely selves surrounded by negativity.  It may feel insurmountable to find new growth as all else withers around us.  We will be faced with choice to change subject, to withdraw or hold affirmative space right where we stand.

We can be thrown off course if we listen too carefully to others or give them priority above and beyond our own speculations.  If we mindfully maintain our own positive energy, we will be less likely to fall back into our own negative patterns.

We have an obligation to speak our truth in spite of resistance around us.  We may even be called to make the difficult decision to let go of those who no longer support our way of thinking in search of new support systems.
