When my son graduated from high school a few years ago, I told him how proud I was of him and that I must have done something right. He respectfully corrected me by saying it was he who did things right. He had made the tough choices and decisions and it wasn't always easy doing the right thing. And so, with that simple reminder:
Saving Myself
In or out
Faith or doubt
Stay or leave
Celebrate or grieve
Speak or mute
Lies or truth
Fight or flight
Wrong or right
The choices are mine
And in the end ..... I'm saving myself.
