Depends on what aspect of my life I'm trying to control...
I can't control the weather, so I can let that go by being prepared for bad weather.
I can't control other people's reactions to me, I can only control my reactions to them.
I can't make everybody love me in my life...so I love those, and pay attention to those who really matter to me - those who love me.
The news is crazy, we live in horrible turmoil, storms, heat, politics... can't really put my head in the sand. I'm not that kind of person. I can make sure my own world is filled with clarity and peace. We are all connected somehow to this vast Universe. I can control what I send out to the Universe, or at least do my best to send out positive vibes, thoughts prayers whenever I can. If I can't do anything else, I can choose not to add to the chaos.
I'm growing old. . . I understand that a lot of people never get the privilege to grow old. I Make each day count. I believe that this life is not the only journey.
