What we experience, what happens to us, during this day-to-day struggle we call life is not always right, or just, or welcomed.
Many times, it keeps on happening because we allow it to happen.
We, all too often, accept what is offered and do not question the conditions or look for other options. We suffer with the consequences.
Look instead for alternatives and opportunities for change. Refuse to accept the state or status quo, give yourself permission to say NO.
Try another perspective.
It can be challenging, it can be downright difficult, but it can also be rewarding.
You can’t always control what happens to you, but you can try.
