we used to call ‘‘straight

I’ve never gone to the top
of a tall building (more than
15 feet) and looked down
without experiencing a
sickish sort of scariness.

And you know what? I've
never deliberately made a bad
choice! | can’t ever remember
saying to myself, ‘‘Self, |
have thoughtfully decided to
make a bad choice.’’ Always,
given the amount of savvy
I've had working for me, |
have made what I consider to
be the ‘‘right’’ choice. See
what I mean? Considering
the awareness | have had,
I’ve always made the best
choice | knew how. You are
like that too. I think we all
are.

If and when the results of
our choices seem to be saying
to us, ‘‘Hey dummy - you’ve
gooted again’’, it would be

ealthy for us to remember
that we did no such thing. We
made the best choice we knew
how to make. We did not
goof. It was not a ‘‘bad”’
choice. It was a choice that
added to our awareness! It
was a learning experience. It
helped us add to the quality
of our insight. It was a choice
that put a clearer hight on the
subject. There ts always the

that others will have been
hurt. So, we have learned
that THAT choice seems to
us to have been counter-
productive and that we are
now free to make a new
choice in the light of our

recently acquired new
awareness.

As Arleen Lorrance says,
**Choice is the life-process.

At any new moment of
awareness, we are free to

make a new choice; and the

So a rewarding expenence
for us hes waiting, not in the
midst of our self flagellation
for making a dumb choice,
but in our gratitude for learn-
ing something from it and be-
ing willing to make new
choices out of our increased
understanding.

Keep on making the best
choices you currently know
how to make. It’s a growing
process. And it goes on and
on and on.
