If we choose to be consciously aware, then where do we start? We have the right to choose, so why not choose to start this journey with our present thoughts, opinions, beliefs and philosophies, the ingredients that make up our present day persona? We can use our individual persona as our foundation—a familiar foundation to grow from. Based on what we have talked about so far, what could our first step entail? Could our first step along this journey be the quest for the answers to the following questions? Who am I, today? What am I, today? How do I view my present day environment? How do I view myself in my present day life style? This step will help you and I discover the basis of our present day thoughts, opinions, beliefs and philosophies. This journey, like many things in life, starts with a choice. Do you choose to move forwards, stand still, step backwards, step to the left, or step to the right? This is your choice. By the way, “I can’t make up my mind” is a choice. Whatever you choose to do, please remember, this is your journey, so whether you walk, run, climb, fall, or fly, do it at your pace. And allow yourself the acknowledgment that you control your growth process through your daily decisions. This is the wonderful gift of “Free Choice.” No matter what you choose, all choices are a learning process for your soul. Some choices will lead you in circles, leaving you feeling trapped, while other choices will open doors to great opportunities. While I was writing the previous paragraph, my little voice asked me this question: ”What if I choose to do something that our present society deems as bad or evil?” The answer is always the same—It is your individual choice and you will be accountable for the outcome. Please remember, I am not here to tell you what is right or what is wrong. I am here to share with you what I have been taught. I would also like to add this—each person knows what he or she is here to acknowledge, to actualize, during this lifetime. You have, by making a choice, the ability to find this understanding. I would like to share with you again, something a friend shared with me. “To pray is to speak to your God. To meditate is to listen to your God.” I would like to close with this thought. There are two aspects to your physical being: Love or hate. Which do you choose to feed on a daily basis?
