Chuckling over Choices

To begin with, it is time to roar back at the hungry, lying tiger that seeks to devour me!  Today I choose to take inventory of my choices and responsibility for my results. Today a wonderful chuckle interrupted my focus as I attempted to bend over to buckle up my shoes!  I heard a wheezing…
