Life is a Choice

KATHY GABLER—Since choice can be an automatic reflex, we must train ourselves to CHOOSE  LIFE.  Of course, re-training ourselves is not a stroll in the park.  Re-training is never easy because we can’t take down-time to work on it.  Re-training happens during real-life problems that just can’t be scheduled.  They never come at a good time. Hell’s attacks are never fair.  It is very difficult to contradict your emotions, especially when you’ve cried enough to salt a creek and used enough Kleenex to rub your nose right off your face.  How do you choose life when you are dealing with relationship issues with someone who won’t even try?  How do you choose life when you’re weary because you’ve already made that choice for months, for years, yet you are still smothering in changelessness?  It’s difficult to choose life, again and again, when you’re still in the grip of pain and it’s taunting you daily. But in spite of difficulty we must CHOOSE LIFE in order to bring CHANGE in our lifetime.
