Shuffle The Deck..

There is 52 cards in a deck, 54 if we include the joker, which we have all played the role of the joker, some of us more than others! We’re all dealt a hand of cards that ultimately represent this thing called “life!” Sometimes we get a Royal Flush and it’s as if everything is looking up for us, we’re progressing, things are working in our favor and we’re simply winning at life. There’s a lot of times when we’re dealt a horrible hand and how we handle what we have been given will determine the outcome! The great thing about it, there’s always more cards left in the deck. You don’t like the hand you have been dealt, and the way you have decided to play those cards go back to the deck and reshuffle. We have a tendency of blaming others for the outcome of our bad decisions but when we play and WIN we take full credit. Take credit for the days you played the wrong cards or played your cards wrong, take accountability for the choices you make, learn from it and then go back to your deck and “reshuffle your cards.” See, the thing about life, we don’t always get to pick the cards, majority of the time we do not pick them at all, there just handed to us, for example; some people are born into a family of abuse and brokenness, they can decide to continue that cycle, and pass on the same deck of cards to their children or will they reshuffle the deck and say this isn’t what I want for myself or my child? Some days you will be dealt a shitty hand, its inevitable, it’s apart of life to help us grow and learn, what’s truly important is if we learn how to play smart, and make the best out of every situation!
