Emotions are choices.

Everything you do is based on the choices you make. It's not your parents, your past relationships, your job, the economy, the weather, an argument or your age that is to blame. You and only you are responsible for every decision and choice you make. Period.

No storm lasts forever no matter what it is. Nature builds calmness within its storms. That's true in our own lives as well. When you reach the zenith of where you are going in your life, or in a relationship; the only place you can go is down or up. That's the nature of this universe; a cyclical thing. The seasons, the moon; everything has a cycle to it.

There is a universal intelligence that we call God or Soul or Spirit or Consciousness, and it is everywhere and in all things.

Be a busy person. People who are active are often much more at peace with themselves than those who are inactive and inert.

You're able to love others, to give to others, and do for others by giving and doing for yourself first.

Live today. Let go of your attachment to your past as an excuse for your life conditions today. You are the product of the choices you are making right now.
