Consequences

Because I have been facing pain this week, I have been reminded lately about the reality of consequences for our actions, decisions, and even words. Every course of action we take and every decision we make brings consequences both forseen and unforseen. I am confident, however, that if I make what I feel is the correct decision, the consequences will always be in my favor--even if it appears otherwise in the moment. Although sometimes natural consequences hurt, they teach me how to understand myself and the world around me better, and after all, I made the decision.

The empowering part of this reality is that I am the governor of my actions. I choose whether to act or simply to be acted upon. I vow to go forward today, and not backward in order to find the best conseqences for me and for those that I love.
