“I guess it comes down to a simple choice, really. Get busy living, or get busy dying.” Andy Dufrense, The Shawshank Redemption
Earlier this week, we thought through the meaning of how “crisis” is written in Chinese. Two symbols, translating to danger and opportunity.
A third word to add comes from the Greek “krisis”, where the English word originated. In Greek, “krisis” translates to “choice.”
Adversity will change us, but how it changes is us through the “krisis” – the choice. As we move through our day, when we approach those inevitable challenges and frustrations; we’ll have that choice. We can chose to be bitter and upset, or to learn. Danger, Opportunity, Choice.
