We can feel overwhelmed by our circumstances. Often, however, the things we experience may be the inevitable trade-offs and results of choices we’ve made
When we can see our ourselves as an actor—someone who makes choices and then understands the outcomes of those choices, good or bad, we empower ourselves to be better at coping with challenges. And, where necessary, we can see how to make different choices.While, none of us have complete control over our lives, seeing ourselves as agents and actors, who make choices and act, as opposed to objects who are acted upon, is a huge key to happiness.And I want you to be happy!All my love, Your #InternetGrandpa
