Choices I Make

I was thinking about control. I like to be in control. I like to think I am in control. Of course most of us know that God is in control. Not us. We do have free will, to do what we want, but absolute control is in God's hands.
I have control (free will) over what I eat, if I exercise, speed while driving, etc...
So I don't have many choices to make (I have to pay the bills, go to work, sleep, etc... or pay the consequences) but the choices I have I am going to make count.

• I will choose to be happy
• I will choose to hug my family when the occasion presents itself
• I will choose to give love freely
• I will choose to give much and expect little
• I will choose to worship the one true God
• I will choose to drink water and eat healthy food
• I will choose to take care of my body*

* Went to the eye doctor last night and discovered the reason for my dry eyes (and part of my vision problem) is clogged ducts. Seriously. What the heck is wrong with me? (Please don't send me your top ten things that are wrong with me.) Out of the things I need to fix on myself, I really didn't think that clogged ducts were on the list. So now I have a daily regimen (UGH) which includes many many steps twice a day. I am not happy about this (insert deep breath) but I made a choice to take care of my body so I will do what the doctor recommends, and my body will thank me for it.
