There are times in life when we make big decisions. We have seemingly complicated choices and sort through pros and cons to figure out the best course of action.
But other times....for many of us...most of the time…the challenges we face aren’t monumental. But rather almost mundane.
Sometimes the choice we make is simply to get out of bed in the morning. To not hit the snooze button again. Sometimes we choose to push through a bad mood.
Sometimes we simply keep moving when we want to give up.We fight the voice of despair. Of temptation. Or pointlessness. Of boredom. Of unmet expectations. Or regrets. And maybe even the desire to just be a kid again...no responsibilities. No pressure.
But as it turns out these little choices we make add up to something of great significance. They shape our attitude, our personality, our character- our lives.
So my challenge to you and to myself is: enjoy life as deeply and as often as possible.
And when those heavy moments come- don't give in. At least not for long. Find little things to restore your joy. And keep going. As it turns out....shadows disappear in the light.
