In the story of Corina, I talk a lot about choices, our choices. And why they are so important. 

Remember, choices are the selection we make between two or more things. These could be our emotions, feelings, food, or toys; it applies to anything. In the fantasy of Corina, choices become very important for her. Once she knows what choices are and, most importantly, how to be aware of them and their consequences, Corina does a good job at carefully using her wisdom to manage her choices. 

Why are these things called choices so important? Well, choices can shape your day-to-day experience, what you feel, what you see, say or do, and also, they shape your future.

Remember that your internal choices and how you feel at any moment are yours. Undeniably yours. However, the choices about your environment, where you live, where you go to school, where you play; those big, big choices are done by the adults caring for you or your parents. 

Now that we have that out of the way, there are also very important aspects of choices, especially when we are little and learning about the world and our lives. When we make important choices we must be calm. We can't make important choices while worried, mad, or angry. Why? Because we don't want our choices to be based on those emotions. Always be in a good state of mind, happy at the time of making a choice. One thing that helps make great choices is to place your hand in your heart. Yes, you got it. Choices made from your heart are usually the correct ones. Why? Because we make them with care and compassion for others. So as you start working and having fun with choices, remember to be comfortable when you are making an choice, and choose from the heart, with the heart.
