Your life at this exact moment is a direct result of choices you made once upon a time. Thirty minutes or 30 year ago.
Choice is destiny's soul mate.
Conscious choice is creative. Unconscious choice is destructive. That is how we end up living other people's lives.
When you learn what you can live without, you are able to ask life for the very best because you possess the gift of discernment. You are able to create an authentic life because you are able to make conscious choices.
