Making Our Own Decisions

When making difficult decisions, it is important that we look into our hearts to do what is right for us. It is natural that we ask friends for direction and follow their advice, but we are forgetting that we are ultimately responsible for our own actions. So don't let the fear of making the wrong decision overwhelm you and let others steer you away from what you know to be true. For there is also the risk of losing who we are when we let others direct our journey instead of deciding what is best for ourselves. Remember living a life that is true is often times difficult and there will be situations where we need to be strong and stand up to others with confidence. Today, walk the talk. Life is often filled with uncomfortable situations that each of us must face, so there is no excuse when you hurt and forget those who are trusting that you will do the right thing. It's easy to be a follower and not make waves, but when you do nothing, nothing changes does it? At some point, you need to say to yourself and others, "This is who I am now and I believe in myself!"

Although these all look alike,
without tasting them we will never know how different they are...
