I encounter more problems when I don't choose. Because the Universe is awaiting for my actions to answer. If I don't move, It offers me the less. And the poorer my heart is about gratitude, the more my family circle is on a bad way. That's why we have to ask questions to ourselves. Thinking about the dreaming act, that's lying in our heart. Drawing plans, taking care of our garden, before to reach the grand peak of the mountain. Keeping faith, as the gift of breathing. Always deciding to live until the final battle. Thus, choosing with great reflection, as much as possible, the right way to. Be. <3 Destiny is the present moment, in which I decide to act or to wait without doing a thing.

I encounter more problems when I don’t choose. Because the Universe is awaiting for my actions to answer. If I don’t move, It offers me the less.
And the poorer my heart is about gratitude, the more my family circle is on a bad way.

That’s why we have to ask questions to ourselves. Thinking about the dreaming act, that’s lying in our heart. Drawing plans, taking care of our garden, before to reach the grand peak of the mountain.
Keeping faith, as the gift of breathing.
Always deciding to live until the final battle.
Thus, choosing with great reflection, as much as possible, the right way to.
Be.

So to with joy, no? The circumstance is colored my my thought. I have stood in the morning light and enumerated all the things that were wrong, all who I could blame, everything that needed to be fixed.... until I stopped myself, looked up, and realized the nature of the world I was creating. Isn't this maya, the illusion. So if I stop this moment and empty the world of all value judged by my meager egoic neediness, all of a sudden the world becomes so large and sound echos in my heart and I breathe deeply and realize that I can make a choice, in this moment. And it can be, in fact, joy. And isn't this, really, the difference between the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil? So those are the real choices: life, joy or suffering. It is all the same face turned towards us that we decide is smiling or frowning or looking blankly at us, depending on what we choose to see. The face the unknown wears is love. Destiny unfolds regardless of whether I think it is preplanned for me or not. I don't know, the pilgramage is true, the pilgrim false... They say there is difficulty in life but suffering is a choice.

So to with joy, no?

The circumstance is colored my my thought. I have stood in the morning light and enumerated all the things that were wrong, all who I could blame, everything that needed to be fixed…. until I stopped myself, looked up, and realized the nature of the world I was creating. Isn’t this maya, the illusion.

Man can never choose a destiny. Neither can he accept destiny as something God has given him. Because he makes up his own destiny. He is the creator of his own destiny... not the chooser. And he is the destroyer too. I disagree. Man can never choose a destiny. Neither can he accept destiny as something God has given him. Because he makes up his own destiny.

Andrea Bocelli sings. Yes!!! No matter what - Dare to live! Listen to your heart. Your heart will always tell you, what you need. Sooner or later. Take your time, but...don't stand on the crossroads, go slowly. Whatever happens, whatever you chose, it'll be your choice, the one, the only. Only then you will be free. Only then you'll smile. Only then you can live. Whichever way you go, it'll be the correct one, because it is your way. You cannot live life both ways, there's always only one. The One. Any way you chose, it will always be an interesting journey, the journey of your life. love Agnieszka “Dare to live”!
Andrea Bocelli sings.

Yes!!!
No matter what - Dare to live!

Listen to your heart.
Your heart will always tell you, what you need.
Sooner or later. Take your time, but…don’t stand on the crossroads, go slowly.
Whatever happens, whatever you chose, it’ll be your choice, the one, the only.
Only then you will be free. Only then you’ll smile.
Only then you can live.
Whichever way you go, it’ll be the correct one, because it is your way.
You cannot live life both ways, there’s always only one. The One.
Any way you chose, it will always be an interesting journey, the journey of your life.

love

The challenge is to either accept the path to ones destiny or choosing a different path in life that isn't as fulfilling. We all know our destiny some just choose to ignore it.

Altought what is ment to be, will happen, we also have the power to make what we want happen. When someone wants something, a dream, with all this heart and soul, he naturally chooses it, even if this choice is what he was always ment to do, this choice will make him achieve it. It has to come from within him- because he has to believe in what he dreams, in himself in order to reach any dream. If he does this, though it may seem as though he is making a choice, he is actually accepting and creating what he was always ment to do- his hearts true desire. Thank you for being Yajna Dearest Paulo and friends
