Found another Einstein quote that fits us... At least I think it fits me!

"How many people are trapped in their everyday habits: part numb, part frightened, part indifferent? To have a better life we must keep choosing how we're living." -- Einstein

I like this one! I was trapped in an everyday habit - that of turning to food for companionship, for comfort, to dispel boredom... No more! Time to choose!

Thanks, gr8views. I like that, too. That seems to be the me who's present when I'm not pleased with the choices I AM making, frankly. Or who, perhaps, is frightened by the choices that I'm making, sure that they are self-sabotaging.

It feels better to have the confidence that one is NOT undermining oneself, to be making those choices, unequivocably.

Choosing is an important skill to master; even not choosing is choosing, as they say, but I dare say that we don't necessarily get what's optimal for us by means of passivity. I believe we should be as reconciled as possible to a course of action, "choose" and then be alert to be sure that the outcome is, indeed, the one we bargained for.

Great quote! That's what we are all doing, and need to continue to do... CHOOSING our lives!
