It’s crazy how the times have changed. With it, the standards, the tragic moments, the great wins. With everything that happens within a single year now, it begins to feel like everything has the power to be truly insignificant. The smaller moments within a single year and even the biggest moments of previous ones. And, as individuals, whether it is intentional or not, we choose what is significant and worthy of our energy in life. We choose where we set our standards; how we define a win versus a loss; a high versus a low; something versus nothing. The power of choice is so prevalent, so strong and dominant, wielded daily and often without care. Knowing that I have this power to direct my energy as I choose, I often err on the side of caution – I am often very careful who and what I deliver a lot of my energy to, because as a result some energy will be received back. Things also occur in life independently from us, and we must be careful of what we allow ourselves to take ownership of, to accept onto our plate, into our systems, into our lives. We can always make an improvement and refresh our perspective to remind us what our true priorities and goals are, and not be distracted by foolishness, tiredness, restlessness, or the deprivation of superficial needs.
