The other morning, I read a passage from my meditation book about choices. It began by noting that we all have a choice in life regarding how we want to deal with hard times. We can use them to fine-tune our spirituality and life skills, or we can use them to become bitter, revengeful, and resistant to change.

The choice, it said, belongs to us.

Amen! The choice is ours! Let yourself sit with that for just a moment because it’s powerful.
