Choosing
I am choosing kindness today.
I am choosing love today.
I may feel justified in my feelings of annoyance, frustration, or whatever negative emotion comes my way, but I have a choice about which path I am going to walk down today. It is most definitely a dying to self, something that is very much needed.
Nothing big happened today. There was no big argument. But there were the little hurts that often do more damage than the big ones. They go unnoticed, and they do pile up.
To switch up the conversation, it is humidly hot today. So very unexpected, and I am overdressed.
I did treat myself to an iced tea from Ost Block, a park bench, and my book before my Slovak lessons. My train wasn’t running today, so I had to take an earlier one, which I am now taking advantage of. It’s a perfect way to de-stress and take a few quiet moments for myself.
I am also thanking Jesus for this moment.
