Each day is a sentence in the
story of your life and each
day you make the choice of
whether or not that sentence
ends with a period, a question
mark,or an exclamation point,
or even if the sentence is worth
ending at all.

Before you can live a part of
you has to die as you have
to let go of what could have
been and realize that we are
what we are today because
of the choices that we made
yesterday and it doesn't matter
how hard it was to make those
choices,what does matter is
that we did.

Choose thoughts that give
you the emotions of being
alive and excited about life
and know that you are where
you are and that you are who
you are with today because of  
decisions you made yesterday
but also realize that you can
change your tomorrow today.

You cannot change where you
came from but you can change
where you are going and know
that you cannot continue down
the same path that you have
been on if you expect to arrive
at a different destination.

Life is not lived with intentions
but with action and the past
cannot be changed but we must
carry our choices that are  made
in only brief seconds hoping that
we are taking our life in the right
direction that we want it to be  
knowing that we will be paying
for those choices in our remaining
time here.
