We Do Have A Choice

The world is both light and dark. At times its easy to forget that both have an important part in creating a complete life experience. When things seem to be the darkest, you must remember that you have a choice to let the darkness take over or turn to the light. Choosing to forgive helps you turn towards the light rather than away from it. Everything we do, and every choice we make either moves us closer to the light or further away from it. When I say light, I'm talking about positivity and humanity, total peace. Sometimes I react in a way that is negative. I get jealous of people who I love dearly when I should be happy for them. I let the darkness of loneliness fill my heart instead of the gratitude and hopefullness for the chance of love for others. When I allow my jealous side to take over, I am my most primordial, and can let that feeling consume me. I become filled with darkness and can only see the darkness in the world around me. I have to train myself to "catch" me from falling into that trap.
