A situation becomes what we decide it is. Despite the ease of having knowledge to depend on, how I accept the circumstance determines its outcome. Why waste energy on pinpointing items to blame when I can choose to adapt and work with it?

 My life experience taught me to focus on something to learn rather than feed negative reactions.Sensing change, it is better to flow with the situation instead of resisting or trying to get my way. Allowing life to guide me, I choose to appreciate the moment and make the best of it. Reflecting on the situation can be done after the process has completed.

 I know that people are human beings struggling with who they are in the life they live. I recall my experience as a teenager living with epilepsy at a time when epilepsy was hardly known. Despite my unique experience, it was not different from other people's experiences. Perspective helps me to recognize how human I am, despite my differences.

Reflecting on knowledge that wasn’t available thirty years ago and coming to terms with my truth. What happened can’t be changed and I am grateful that it never broke me. I can embrace the truth and discover where it takes me.
