Choosing what matters

“Some things don’t matter much. Like the color of a house. How big is that in the overall scheme of life? But lifting a person’s heart — now, that matters. The whole problem with people is, they know what matters, but they don’t choose it. The hardest thing on earth is choosing what matters.” ~Sue Monk Kidd, The Secret Life of Bees
