Stimulus, Choice, Reaction, Response

<p>Ep #142 - Society is moving away from accepting others for their differences. The shared experiences we are having are seemingly pushing us further apart, rather than drawing us, through curiosity, toward and understanding of our uniqueness and individuality as our shared human experiences interact with one another.</p> <p>You are in a place of education. You are part of the solution playing out right before your very eyes. There is divisiveness but it does not have to be seen nor heard as dividedness. </p> <p>That is a choice. Between the stimulus, an external circumstance or internal thought, and our following action - that is where the choice exists. The choice to be emotionally reactive or emotional grounded.</p> <p>Differences between individuals will always exist. This is part of life. It is part of our human history. These differences have torn friends and families apart. These differences have started wars and destroyed civilizations.</p> <p>We are not yet at that apex point, over the bell curve, if you will. You are at an institution where learning and growing is the actual point of being there. Middle school, high school, or university/college - whereever this finds you at this moment in your life, you are at a place where you can make a difference by moving through the differences and through curiosity and a desire to connect - you can be an integral part in the grass-roots movement that unites rather than instigates separation.</p> <p>The choice is yours and you have it thousands of times a day.</p> <p>Just hit play and let's dive in with our open minds, hearts, and energies bringing everyone into the fold - you are in the right place, at the right time...right now.</p> <p>It is time. It has been time. To live is to shine. Step into the SUN.</p> <p>Stand up, step forward, raise your hand - it's your turn, I will call on you.</p> <p>********************************************</p> <p>Thank you so much for listening and being a part of my tribe and this wonderfully supportive community.
