You are the captain of your soul

You are the captain of your soul - I love that expression. Even if you feel like a victim at times, you never are. No one has control of your soul. Your personality is meant to experience negativity like fear, anger and self-pity so you will learn from them and grow spiritually.

As we approach year's end it is an ideal time to reflect. Are you the captain of your soul? Or is your personality in charge, wallowing in negativity? We need negativity for growth, but short quick doses are preferable! Your soul is about light, love and laughter...

As you face your daily volley of balls stay focussed, keep moving forward and do not give in to self pity or despair. If you have an addiction that keeps you from facing life's challenges, deal with it. I did, 24 years ago, and it changed my life. Above all, keep moving....
