The situation around me right now is really hard to deal with. Everything seems to be pushing in, overwhelming me, and pushing me under water.
It could be partially chemical and partially situational.
Regardless of what portion of each it was, I have a choice of how I act and react.
Even if the feelings weighing over me are entirely chemicals within my own body, I am in charge of my response.
I am not a victim in my own story.
I can act. I can change the course of the story.
I don’t have to simply sit by, moan about what could have been. I can act and change what will be.
I have choices.
