We can’t allow ourselves to be defined by our past and by what has happened to us to make us how we are. How we choose to react to life’s events is what truly defines us as individuals, for if it wasn’t we would all react exactly the same way to the same things such as bereavement, heart break, losing our job or even something as simple as what somebody has said to us. This is clearly not the case as there are many amazing stories of people out there who have overcome what life has thrown at them and gone on to live truly wonderful lives, leaving their mark on humanity.
We have the choice in how we react and therefore we shape our identity and the quality of our lives through these choices.
What choices will you make?
