You choose. You decide

Every second the time passes,
you breathe in new air
you breathe out old air
your eye captures new images
and your brain absorbs new material

every day we learn something new
every day we strive to be better people.

how we behave becomes our sole actions
actions that become our habits

and all together, makes you YOU!
but on the side note, all of it also becomes your "reputation"

Reputation is a hard act to follow
meaning it defines your core..
well in other people's eyes..
and it can't be easily erased

so what is stronger? what the majority has to say about you? or what you have to say?
yes YOU are all that matters..
but if you live in "society"
the group, the people, the world becomes the dominant force..
and you can't escape what you are labeled.

Unless with great patience and great wisdom
you alter your behavior
you decide your next move with GREAT wisdom
you patiently stick by what you say you will do

Its officially been 1 wk of the new year,
and I have not been preparing myself for what changes I want to make

I don't want to be taken for granted anymore
when I see strong independent women that don't define themselves from a man's eyes, I want to be them!
I want to be classy and elegant in the way I speak, take care of others, and behave.

I hope to be a better person this year.
all I need to remember is
make "smarter and greater choices"
