I choose…still.

Writing 1 Minute

I choose…still.

I choose, to stand, still.

I choose, to love, still.

I choose, to care, still.

Circumstances, dealt me some cards I did not wish to play.

Still, I choose, I chose, to stand.

Situations, mocked me, laughed in my face.

Still, I choose, I chose, to love.

The world, told me my efforts were in vain, told me to pack up and get gone.

Still, I choose, I chose, to care.

God and Life, remained silent, as circumstances, situations and the world dealt, mocked, and laugh. Still, I choose, I chose, to stand, to love, to care.

God and Life ARE Faithful.

I am forever grateful.

I CHOOSE to remain:

Stedfast.

Unmoved.

Unapologetic.

Resolute.

Resilient.

Joyful.

Hopeful.

Loving.

And, in loving, I shall continue to choose to:

Receive.

Say.

Live.

Love.

And, in so doing, I SHALL be:

Loved.

Seen.

Heard.

Cherished.

Fought, for.

Cared, for.

Loved, by:

God.

Life.

Me.

Family.

Whosoever will.

Whosoever won’t…*shrug*.

Nevertheless and however, I choose…still.

here still,

Cassandra

  1. What a lovely positive list, mantra, Cassandra! Every mirror should have something like that attached next to it, so when you look at your reflection, you can go through the ‘good’ list, instead of just criticizing every tiny detail that is wrong. Lovely piece of writing!
