#Mywordfortoday is #Challenges.
I had shared this before, but called it Guarantees, it ties very well with the theme of the day.
There are no guarantees in life. Your health, mobility, limbs, and even your thoughts are not guaranteed, they are all gifts.
We are given a body healthy or not, mobile or not, we are given a mind, smart or not, creative or not. We are all given our abilities and it is our choice whether we go beyond our limits for ourselves, or whether we listen to others tell us what our limitations are.
It is our choice whether we learn to be better then we are told we can ever be, it is up to us to be who we are satisfied with.
We are the sum total of our choices, our bodies, our thoughts. When we are at the end of our lives, it is us who determines if it was a life worth living. No matter how long or how short we have here it is us who determines if it was well lived.
There are no guarantees in life. A job and a business can be given and taken away just as easily. From being financially free to just getting by, to living on nothing at all, there are no guarantees.
We choose to stop or continue, believe or blame, have faith or have fear. We can choose to see all things as a lesson and learn from both the good and the not so good, and grow or choose not to see lessons at all and stay the same.
There is no guarantee in life. You can invest all your money, heart, soul and time into a business just to watch it slip away from you, you can spend all your time, heart, soul and money getting a job, just to be let go before you even start making anything. You can create wealth and financial freedom, you can have the best plan, have an amazing job or own a business. There are no guarantees in life.
There are no guarantees in life. You can meet the person of your dreams, fall in love and get married, have amazing babies, live and grow old in the most romantic fairy tale, more in love then the day you met, and it could last till the end or you could lose them way too soon, you can meet, fall in and out of love, have affairs, be cheated on, be alone, be lonely, be a single parent, not ever find your true love. There are no guarantees in life.
There are no guarantees in life. You can have the very best of friends who you get along with all the time, do things you love to do, celebrate with, party with and just enjoying each other's company. They are there for you when things seem tough in your life, help each other out in all the best ways.
You can have friends who you think are your best friends, yet they tell you who you should be, how you should dress, and what you should do. They talk behind your back, judge everything you do and don’t support you in any way. They may do everything they can to make you feel guilty and responsible for the relationship that you are not even happy with. There are no guarantees in life.
Through our lives, we have to take chances. We may never know the outcome until it is done, we may never know the way until the lesson is learned, we will only know for that brief moment what feels right for us that day.
There are no guarantees, no way of knowing for sure, but wouldn’t it be lovely if we took that chance, knowing there are no guarantees and I am worth living as me, I am worth doing what makes me happy for this one moment in time.
We all need to take the chances we are given in life, success and failures alike for without all of them I would not be me.
So please go ahead and live your life. Get rid of the “what ifs”, the fears, the worries, the judgements, the second-guessing, and know that no matter what there are no Guarantees so you might as well take a chance and live your life the way you truly want to live it.
