victim/volunteer

Today I am not a victim, not to any one or anything. Today I am a volunteer in my own life. Suit up, show up, be a part of. I try to stay with the herd, because we all know what happens to the strays...

I really like this, well written!!!! I also am a volunteer today in my own life and by gosh I'd much rather suit up any and every day, now that I know how wonderful life really can be, "we can be the change we want to see in the world".... do you know the song by "Everclear"..."Wonderful"?, it's beautiful and fitting in the here and now for me. I pray you continue to remain a volunteer and enjoy your journey!!!

Red face Thanks!

Thanks I needed to hear that!



For me this helps remind me that today I have "choices".
