"We hardly ever realize that we can cut anything out of our lives, anytime, in the blink of an eye."

~ Carlos Castaneda, 20th century mystic and Toltec warrior

from Journey to Ixtlan

There's something powerful about recognizing the fact that we can cut anything out of our lives at any time.

When we truly recognize this fact, we are no longer a victim being forced to do anything.

Although we may choose to do the same things, we become a warrior consciously creating our life...

Likewise we have the option of “putting into” our lives those things we choose. The abilty to choose is a more positive approach to life than the victimized attitude of only being able to remove those things that are impsoed upon us.

Robert Frost notes with clarity the difference of choice in his poem “the road not taken”.
