Sometimes we just feel really tired. With all the things to think about and all the obligations we are faced with constantly, we just want to "stop the world and get off" as it were. When choice is equated with "obligation" this may serve to make our heads spin and we become all too eager to relinquish our decision making to others - feeling that this is ultimately easier than perpetually carrying the burden of responsibility for ourselves. We often put this burden on teachers, our parents, our lovers, our friends, our doctors, our bosses, our government officials, law enforcers. But by doing that what we are saying is: I cannot choose for myself. I need others to do it for me. I'm not smart enough, articulate enough, patient enough, powerful enough. I cannot make clear decisions for myself involving health, safety, making money, how to live etc. so much better to give that responsibility to those who are "more powerful". However in truth - I feel no one is any more or less powerful than anyone else. The more we rely on some perceived outside force or entity for our wellbeing, our peace, our freedom, our security, our health etc. - the more we will spin in the rutt of not having and trying to get these things - and the subsequent anger, frustration and weariness. HINT: It's much easier to be fully responsible for your own self than not. Today, celebrate that you are a being of pure limitless power and that at each moment you can make any choice you desire. The more aware you are of this, the more your choices will serve you and those around you.
