juicy

i met the juiciest man the other day. his light was so radiant and contageous. i couldn't help but to be shifted in the process of our conversation. i asked him what enabled him to be so bright, so radiant. i wanted to know if it was a consistent thing or if i had just caught him on a good day. and you know what this dear, enlightening soul said to me? he said,

"it's a choice. i choose the choice in each and every moment. i know what it feels like to choose othewise and i don't like it. so i've decided to be joyful and spread the love in each moment. each moment i make the decision."

wow. this man opened my life to love manifested. consistent. tireless. pure. he reminded me of what i strive for. and it's hard sometimes. particularly in a family that sometimes feels like it's unravelling at the seams. sometimes when words are so violent and painful that i just shut down and crawl away into a silent room to avoid further contact. the choice is in each moment. i am creating my own experience. yes sir. it's true. thanks for the reminder.
