Two weeks in...

The year has already brought its ups and downs; two weeks in at that. Skin biopsy, broke down and finally broken car, work place discomforts...I think there are a couple more events that I have hidden in the depths of my mind. 

Thats life. Its is what life truly is about. The ups and downs that make each day different from the next. These events sculpt us. 

We dread the moments that make us stronger, yet only see the potential for strengthening once the wave has passed over. These moments shape our lives. They shape the people who we become not only for ourselves but for the world we live in. We can choose how to handle these moments that have potential to knock us flat on the ground. Its a simple choice. We can choose to feel defeated or we can choose to defeat...whatever that may look like. 

New day resolution: To love more, be more patient, be more kind, BITE MY TONGUE, and choose wisely how I react to life changing moments. No matter how big or little they may be. 

I want my life to be marked by love.
