Minute
~ Edwin Markham
I feel like in many ways we have been in limbo
for the last 6 months since the pandemic started. It doesn’t feel
like we are choosing much of anything, but rather just “being.” It
feels at times that we are just holding on and not choosing.
What we need to remember is that by not
choosing, we are still choosing. Doing nothing is a passive
choice. I am not an economics theory expert, so my oldest son might
correct me on this, but I think there is a parallel between making no choice and
opportunity cost. By not choosing, what are we losing?
Life is full of choices – active and
passive. We need to choose wisely, and also remember that things we
do and things we don’t do are choices.
This continues to be a challenging time,
and I am amazed at the positivity I see every day! I want to remember that I need to make active
choices, and not just passively let the world make choices for me because no
choice is a choice.
Have a great week!
Mary
