Good morning,
So this past week I have been reminded about turning to my faith, rather relying on self, which for the most part, always leads me down the wrong branch of my tree of life. I lost a job because of my lack of trusting and listening to my HP and running a situation by my sponsor. I have learned a valuable lesson and hope not to forget it anytime soon.
In early sobriety we are told about the importance of relying on something or someone other than self to be able to live a more ‘adulting’ life. After all this time I still forget, which is probably part of being human. My ego can still run riot over my decisions and in my life.
Today I focused on my meditation and was able to be more creative and more focused on the things I enjoy doing. So the lesson, again learned, is to pray, ask my sponsor and listen before acting. Thank you HP for my willingness to be continually teachable. One day at a time, one situation and one lesson at a time. Oh well, forward I shall go.
This morning I’m grateful for having dinner last night with dear friends. I’m grateful for lessons learned and not forgotten. I am thankful for my practice of mindfulness and meditation; I am continually amazed at the difference it makes in my life. I am thankful for a new day and waking up healthy and happy to claim my place in life. I am thankful for lessons learned and remembered; I can reflect and then move forward and ready to face the next right thing in my life to stay sober one day at a time.
Have a wonderful Sunday. 🤗💕
