Paths

Paths

Since your birth, you have had a safe place to take refuge from the world around you.  It has even been a place to realize your dreams and aspirations.  Yet as a double-edged sword, it can also be a place of destruction and chaos.

I am referring to your mind and your thoughts.  Your entire world is created with your thoughts whether it is chaotic or serene.  The choice has always been yours to decide.

Every second is yours to decide if you will be happy or sad, loving or hateful, positive or negative and the list could become very long with choices.  There is no other soul on the planet that can choose for you or make you think a certain way.

However, you can believe that others are responsible for your happiness or misery for example.  In that case, you will conduct yourself according to that belief.  Still, that is YOUR choice, not the choice of others around you.

If you want to experience the pure thoughts of yourself and embrace the love and possibilities of this World and Universe, then I suggest you take the path that leads to unlimited possibilities.  It is a path that is your own and only traveled as you create the way.  By opening your mind to unlimited possibilities, you will be walking on YOUR path, which will be revealed as you walk through your life.

Stopping to analyze, plan, make rules or gaze at other’s paths will inhibit and sometimes stop your path.  You will no longer see your path in front of you but everyone else’s and your life is no longer in your hands as you have placed it in the hands of others.  By choosing to give other people the responsibility of your life and your thoughts or feelings, you are closing your own path leading to infinite possibilities.

As soon as you let go and accept yourself then trust, your path will open and all you need to do is go forward.  Love yourself, forgive yourself and others then say Thank You for all that is to come and has been, because the path in your world is not limited by your imagination but by your lack of trust in your imagination and the possibilities available to you.

What path have you chosen for your life, yours or someone else’s’?
