He watched his wife get killed…May 11, 2021 Update

“NO!! Let me go!!!”

Kicking and screaming as much as she could…

They took the butt of their rifle and cracked her right across the face, knocking her unconscious as they dragged her motionless body out of the room…

That was the last time he ever saw his wife.

It was 1945 and Viktor Frankl had been inside Nazi concentration camps for nearly three years now.

He witnessed his parents and brother get hauled off to be killed.

Now his wife was gone…

You would think something like that would break a man completely. 

And for many, it did.

But Dr. Frankl knew something. 

As he quotes,

“Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.”

Even in the depth of such horrendous experiences, he knew he had ultimate control over how he chose to feel and respond.

What a powerful lesson.

He wrote about his experiences in his book, Man’s Search For Meaning. 

It’s a great book and I recommend it. 

Here’s a short, classic video of Dr. Viktor Frankl speaking about the power of meaning and choice.

How To Turn Tragedy Into Triumph

That TV interview is from 1972.

Today, we have a choice…

Many of us are seeing what’s going on in this country and around the world.

Many of us see what “they” have planned next…

How will YOU respond now?

Hopefully by now you realize every choice you make is important.

And YOU have control over how you respond to situations. 

Use this knowledge to your advantage and to improve the lives of others.

You are here for a reason.

God Bless

Todays Tip

Tip of the day: Be aware of how you’re responding to things today. Do you have an instant emotional reaction to something? Or are you deliberate in how you think and respond to situations?

Like Viktor Frankl said, “Forces beyond your control can take away everything you possess except one thing, your freedom to choose how you will respond to the situation.”

Protect your thoughts, words and actions as your most prized possessions because they are.
