How did we get to where we are today?

Answer: 

By ourselves.  (With clever and hidden manipulation as well)

We chose what to wear in the morning, before work or school.

 (How others will see us)

Some of us chose the vehicle we are driving. 

Most of us chose the type of work we do. 

We chose what music to hear, television shows to watch(which news sources etc)

We choose our friends or who we associate or not associate with. 

We chose what we eat( Being vegan, vegetarian, or just eat to survive in general) 

We choose what beverages we consume, excessively or not. 

We choose the teams in sports( One against another) 

We chose our faith, religion or beliefs 

We chose democrat/republican or other. 

We choose to be active or lazy. 

In all these, we chose or were somehow influenced to be; over the days of our lives.

We're all different but we all have one true purpose: Make life work for us! 

Survive; we are only here until we are no longer here. It isn't a competition, or race to the end. 

Just live, day by day by week by month by year. 

                      Successful, or not, you simply need to be yourself! 

All the wonderful material things you may accumulate in life, does not go with you.

 The memory remains. WHATEVER THAT, will be. 

You decide.

                                  

                                               Time to CHANGE

Just a thought(You're no different)

 You're no different than anybody else:   

 when you drive 10-20 miles over the limit.  When you pass another without using your signals.  When you rush ahead of me just to exit off the ramp in front of us.  When you ride up close to the rear of my vehicle or the one in front of you to try and intimidate the driver into getting out of your way. You're no different than anyone else. Look around! You are a copy or mirror image of the driver's or motorists all around you.                         

      You're no different 

 The difference between you and me?  I choose to be better.   I choose to signal my intentions. I choose to drive within the posted speed or at the limit.  I choose to be courteous and more patient than most. Yes in that aspect;  I am better than you (if these words are what it takes to get you to take the challenge, and better yourself) It takes discipline. It takes restraint. It takes wanting to make it from A to B safely and not as fast as possible.  

What is the point?  

We both still get there and that is the goal.  You're no different. 

   Time to change that in YOU
