Choosing Door One or Door Two

Having choice to walk through door one or door two is a gift for sure but not always easy to negotiate.  Anxiety about which door is the ‘right’ option, fear about consequences created by opening different doors, grief about closing old ones; confusion about what is reckless or realistic.  

Today, I will remember the many choices I have made in the past which always lead me further down my path.  The journey is more important than the outcome and very few choices are permanent.  There are usually many opportunities to change my mind and besides that whatever I decide I will grow and move forward.  So, I can breathe and trust that the path is unfolding before me.  I will not open a door out of fear.  When I feel peaceful and positive, only then will I walk forward.

  1. At times the walk forward is propelled by forces outside of oneself. Despite this, it is up to each individual to recognize their journey is unique to their life story. The good, the bad, the pain, and the joy are all embedded in our trip. The trip is a very personal journey that often times is not fully understood by the one traveling it. Oftentimes it takes another person to become invested and open to sharing or hearing of the journey to enlighten the one traveling the road to open themselves up and feel.
