The choices are more than we think
I recently saw an interview on television where a young man whose name is Joe Cada was asked how wining 8.5 million dollars had changed his life. The answer, "I don't get to sleep in any more". Interesting. The interviewer thought the answer was different because he replied, "After winning that much money, one would think you could sleep as late as you want". It's true. Young Joe still has the same choices as before. There may more things to do now that he has become a millionaire 8.5 times over, but the choice to sleep in is still available.
It is also true with you. Regardless of what choice you have always made and still would like to make, there are more choices than you think. Perhaps we are limited by our environment, or our family traditions, but there are still more choices than we think. For example, if you believed today was your last day on earth, what choices would you make? Would you choose to tell people who were really important to you, that you really cared about them? Would you take the time to relax, or perhaps do something you had been intending to do for a long time. Remember, the choices are more than we think. Peace.
