"Scripting" is when we think we have a "script" for our life. What we may not realize is that we can re-write the script, our script, at anytime. Our final chapter has not yet been written.
As human beings we have self-awareness. By being aware of ourselves we can see down what path our current choices and behaviors are taking us; and it might not be where we want to end up. Sometimes we become aware that we are going in the right direction, a direction which is congruent with our vision, conscience and values. Sometimes we become aware that we are going in a not so good direction; one that is incongruent with our vision, conscience and values.
So we re-write the script. We change course. We make different choices. We assume different roles. We set different standards. We create a different vision. We become self-aware and we exercise our freedom to choose. Some of the greats in history started out on a not so good path only to change course and finish in a way that made a difference. So can we. We can re-write the ending to our script, our lives.
Or we can just say, "that's the way I am" and be happy with that.
