January often brings reflection. We ponder our experiences,
rejoicing in the happy moments and reliving over and over the tearful ones. Sometimes we question our rational. “Why on
earth did I do that?” “What in the world
was I thinking?” “How could I let that happen?” Why is it we keep reliving these less than stellar moments? Over and over scenes pass
through our mind...
There are likely more theories on this than letters on this
page. I believe it is the pathways we
follow, that create the options to choose who we become. When we look back and
relive those moments it is with a different mindset. We are like a bystander watching a
movie. We have different thoughts and
emotions as we reconsider our actions.
We have the power to ask; “What might I have done differently? What have
I learned? How would I face the same situation?”
We can’t change the past or wash away our heartache and the
tears. However, we can rise above
yesteryear, set our sights on new horizons and move forward. Every morning
brings a new day... A new path may be on the horizon. Consider your options carefully, for they determine who you become.
