Choice

That one day, when the sun is shining, and you've been tired to such an excess that you take one step back from the life you have been caught up in, and you breathe. A deep, rejuvenating, breath.  You feel the tightness in your shoulders, the ache if the muscles, but you feel.

One day when the rain is falling and you have no place to run, no place to hide, and you stand, giving in. One drop falls and you shudder, then the next and the next until you are covered, drenched, fresh, clean.

In those moments you can see that you can step back. You do have control. There is always another option. There is no guarantee that the other option is better, or sensible, or right, but you have a choice.

In that moment you make that choice and with that decision comes the energy to tackle the problem, to smile.
