There will come a day when I will draw my last breath. I think about this day. What will I want more of but more importantly what will I treasure the most about this life’s experience?
I know I won’t care how much of anything I have. I know I won’t care if I am right or wrong about anything. I think I will care most about the kind of man I was in this life.
I will care about the kind of choices that I made silently and in the quiet places of my mind. The places only I know about. While I can’t fully control the world, what happens to me, or what my outcomes in life are. I can control what I think about and what I do in this life. That is for sure.
I have many choices each day to make. Choices about compassion, generosity, and love. Yes choices about loving myself and others. So what kind of man will I be proud that I was?
I will be most proud of being a loving man. A man who didn’t compromise when I felt I was making a good choice. That I was able to stand firm no matter what stood against me. To be steadfast in my faith in me and what I most believe in.
I won’t always be right about everything I think. But I will always hold the intention to be loving and compassionate. I will always be authentic to myself and what that always means no matter the consequences. And that is the most loving thing I can think to do for myself. To be authentic in thought and action.
I am love. I am joy. I am always good.
