Good afternoon! ... Good point you make here. It is all about choice, isn't it? I come from the US. I often thank God that I was born in this country. A lot of our freedom relates to a sense of choices, not only over ourselves, but in our lives and the way we choose to live it. Thank you for the reminder that how we "live" is our choice!

Hi Lucid. It can indeed be empowering to remember that no matter where you live or what your conditions, you control your thoughts and feelings. Its not your job to control how other people think, behave or feel. That's up to them and their free will. You decide how you'll react: with love or fear. Attitude and mindset shape your life.

Viktor Frankl wrote a marvelous book about the power each of us exerts over our own thoughts. That book is called "Man's Search for Meaning."

Beautiful blog- the use of complementary colours is phenomenal. It makes reading the entry a moving experience in itself.
Thank You.

eggs, nice to hear you enjoy the texture of this blog. It may surprise some people to learn that not everyone views the same colours and textures at the same time or even at all. What matters is that the experience is yours. It does not have to be identical to someone else's experience to be significant and meaningful for you right now.
