This Life Is Ours: What Are We Choosing To Do With It?

By Marie T. Russell, InnerSelf.com

Whatever we give energy to, is what will live in us and come from us.

— Marie T. Russell, InnerSelf.com

While nothing in the world really belongs to us, our lives are one thing that do belong to us. We are in charge of them completely. We get to make choices, set goals, and choose the direction in which we desire our lives to progress.

As we all know, life isn't simple. It's not just a question of setting a goal and then knowing that we will reach it, no matter what. There are so many variables... not only what we do, but what others do as well. Even our physical body, though it is also unquestionably ours, is complex and influenced by many external, as well as internal, factors. Our body is ours, but it also has its own mode of operation. Yet, even with all the complexity of life, there is always a simple thread underlying it all. We get to choose our attitude. No one can impose an attitude on us. And our attitude sets the tone for our life. So which attitudes are you choosing?

Whenever we feel out of sync with our life, we can find the clue to the reason why by accessing our feelings. Any disharmony within your being will be expressed through your feelings. When we don't pay attention to our feelings, the energy blockage remains and builds, and can erupt in harmful ways. It is best to learn to tune in to our feelings rather than ignore and repress them. They are there for a reason. They have a message to share.
