Choices...

I watched an elderly woman attached to an oxygen tank, light up a Capri slim cigarette. The whiteness juxtaposed against her wrinkled skin caught my eye. It dangled between her fingers and I was transfixed. I watched as she coughed and hacked walking with great effort to a car parked next to me, the green tank trailing behind her like a faithful pet.  The scene led me to contemplate choices. Every day, every minute...every second... we make choices. To live a healthy life. To love. To be free from fear. Or continue with choices that prevent us from reaching the Fullness of our Life. Unbeknownst to her, this woman reminded me of the valuable lesson of Choice. That our very actions cause a ripple effect stating very succinctly what desires and changes we want to manifest....what reality we envision..what world we want to live in...
