Choose What Is Worth Keeping

TODAY'S QUOTE:
"Take what you can use and let the rest go by.".... Ken Kesey, 1935-2001, American Author (known for the book "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest")

The amount of weight you carry is completely up to you. Others can place things upon your shoulders... that much is true. But unless you firmly grasp onto that burden there is no way in hell it will stay balanced there on its own. One step without clutching hold and it will roll into the dirt. Let it slide. Allow it to slip. Shove it if necessary... but free yourself.

The world is overflowing with content, some good, some not... choose your own filling wisely. Absorb what makes forward motion easier, discard things that slow you down. See life as a journey you are taking then pack what makes sense to carry along.

When you go out to eat, you do not order everything on the menu. Allow life to be a banquet... but do not swallow things that others try to shove down your throat. Most times the only reason it is getting placed upon your plate is because someone else does not wish it upon their own. Fill your plate yourself and eat with gusto. And as always.... think about it.... let it ride.... then decide!!!!
