"I read a book that said:
Marriage is hard. Divorce is hard. Choose your hard.
Obesity is hard. Being fit is hard. Choose your hard.
Being in debt is hard. Being financially disciplined is hard. Choose your hard.
Starting a business is hard. Working 9 to 5 is hard. Choose your hard.
Life will never be easy, but. you can choose your hard.
Choose wisely!
Today is another day where the inspiration came from outside the AFL reflections. I found this little blurb on a Facebook post. I spoke to me today. I've never heard it put this way. "Choose your hard".
Something else that came up in response to an inquiry about the reflection today. The reflection and conversation that followed was about the word "Holy"... which I also call "Sacred".
I said on Whatsapp...
"Holy, or preferably Sacred for me now is more about special than perfect... maybe even flawed, but the flaws are redeemed."
I guess I can find the sacred in flaws and find flaws in the sacred. Maybe in choosing my hard... that is where I will find the sacred.
