Choices
Make
your own choices.

you need.
Honor your inner
knowing.
Respect the
principles you believe in.
Is
it fair?
Is
it wise?
Is
it helpful?
Is
it beneficial for All?
Children
are often asked to consider these areas before making a choice.
Adults seem to
forget.
When we learn to
believe in what others tell us, we may neglect our own honest answer.
When we follow the
crowd or what sounds good, we may forget to get the information we need to
decide.
In
our less mature stages of development, we may only choose for ourselves to win.
We may not even care
and avoid making choices, simply focused on our own pleasure.
As we mature, we
tend to go along with parents, authority figures or those we want to impress.
When we begin to
develop our own independence, we may rebel or purposely resist others.
As
adults, we consider many factors, before making decisions.
We want to make
decisions mindfully.
We want to do what
is fair and wise.
We want to be honest
and helpful.
We
mature adults, we recognize what is fair, wise, helpful and beneficial for all.
We begin to
understand that our choices affect everyone everywhere.
There is a
remembering “all for one and one for all.” is a key factor.
Learning to make
good decisions creates respect and trust in ourselves and others.
When
we are immature, lazy or have not yet learned our own value, we make unwise
decisions.
As I have learned to
be responsible for my life, I notice that every decision I make has
consequences.
The polling place,
the friends I choose, the place I work and live, all impact far more than I
know.
My decisions can be
fair or unfair, wise or unwise, helpful or harmful and good or bad for others.
We
need to create opportunities for ourselves and our children to make our own
decisions.
We need to learn
from the choices what is helpful, wise, fair and beneficial.
We can only discover
the outcome through experience.
We will learn when
we give ourselves and others the opportunity.
I
trust you are learning and growing.
I appreciate your
willingness to try.
I respect you for
giving your best.
I free you to do
what is “right” for you.
Loving
us all as we learn together what is best for us
all.
