Peace Is A Choice

By Sean Whalen • August 8, 2016

This is my ex wife and her husband.

Our 3 kids and their 2 kids.

Tonight they invited me over for dinner.

5 years ago she and I had to have a police escort just to pick up and drop off our kids.

We only communicated through lawyers.

I wanted to punch her boyfriend (now her husband).

Tonight we broke bread, laughed, played with the kids and had a great evening.

Never give up friends.

PEACE is a choice.

It's YOUR choice.

Not THEIR choice.

"Yea but he does..."

"Yea but she does..."

What your ex does is IRRELEVANT.

YOU CHOOSE how and what you say.

YOU CHOOSE how and what you do.

Even when they are trying to fight with you.

ESPECIALLY when they are trying to fight with you.

CHOOSE to create PEACE by LIVING PEACEFULLY.
