The Script of Life

​Imagine if every word you had ever said or thought were written down in the script of your life.  There would be many words evoking many meanings. At the end of one’s life, there would be a very thick script.  Yet that book would have a beginning and an end with a finite number of words. As I went running yesterday, I wondered how much of my book would be filled with mean, negative words.  If I were more consciously writing the script, do the words align with who I want to be? I might have a thousand pages left. Each line adds to my story. Each line has consequences. Am I contributing to my life and the life of others with my words and thoughts--or am I detracting from my best self and those around me?  The difference is important, and we should choose consciously.
