You get to choose how to be.
Every day, every minute, every second. You get to choose how to be. No matter what is happening. All the time. With no exceptions. There is -one- choice you *always* have, always-- how to be. In any given situation, every day, all the time.
Sometimes, we've been one way for a very long time. Or we think that we are trapped in being a certain way. Or that we *have* to be a certain way. It's an icky feeling. (As is anything untrue.) And when we believe this way it might be difficult to feel as though we have a choice in how we can be in each and every moment. And we may feel like other people or past events or future events or any number of things *make* us -be- a certain way. Or that we have the *right* to be a certain way, because, this that and the other. And the other and the other and the other.
But that is never truth. It is always us, being. However we're being. Just cuz we are. No matter what our excuses are. Our reasoning. And we could be another way whenever we decide. Doesn't matter, don't have to, just could is all. But the point is we always, always *do* get to choose- and it can always be any way. Any.
Tonight my hope is... that you see that. Just simply see that choice for what it is in all the myriad ways it is offered to you, all the time. And will always be. Whether you see it or not. But my hope is that you see it, and see that you are the only person involved in this choice when it comes *riiiight* down to it. On accounta, once you see all that, you can be whoever you want to be. *Really.* Any time. All the time. Freely. And that, friends, is a wonderful feeling. The best. It is the truest form of freedom. Living from the inside, out. Master of your own experience, destination: who knows.
The best. Feeling. Ever.
Me, I want to be happy. So I choose that.
Loving, so I choose that.
I choose other things. But those are the most important two.
