The fruits of my labor already exist in my values.

The fruits of my labor already exist in my values. My garden of purpose is perennial and forever in need of tending but I am surrounded by the results I have intended to create. I am empowered by the splendor that is my life and my asset is personal validation.

Choices

Negotiating acceptable trade-offs validates our unique perspectives to reflect what each lacks for a balanced voice of truce. 

When we're together I'm beside myself, so I concede mutual vested interest, incentive or opportunity to my other half for valued consideration. 

Only by the power of self-respect in reciprocal vulnerability, need and compassion do 'me and thee consummate we.' 

The rest is all a dance on the sidelines of Cinderella Pandering or prohibition, or of bottom line temptation to cheat by provocation, promiscuity, or shame. 

But here at the gate of impasse, I still have a choice and my pride.


Choices......we all have to make them sometimes we perform better than others in deciding what choices to make. Our choices must reflect what we need to achieve, balanced by what we want to achieve.
