7.29.16 What will we choose

Sometimes we have in our lives what we truly experience as losses. 

Because, true, one thing is lost, and sometimes it is rather earthshaking. 

Many things can diminish, or terminate. 

The capacity to hear, to see, to have mobility, to live independently, to make a living, and to do the things you need to do in your own precious small personal life. 
So many things like this can happen,.which give way to the reality : we have so many moments of choice. To decide we are here remaining every day in loss. 

Or instead, being right here, experiencing that which diminishes, that which changes, and the actuality of transformation. 
Will we be the person who cannot do this and this and this? 

Or shall we be the person informed by difficult changing abilities and circumstance, who remains intact and complete, in the midst of all that is our life?
