my daily reflections…

today i strive to live by the spiritual principles of recovery. i do this because recovery has shown me how to take my troubles as they come, how to maintain a calm and composed behavior amid pressin duties and unendin engagements, how to rise above the distressin and disturbin circumstances in which i am set down, and have experienced & have discovered, a priceless secret of daily livin through each of the spiritual principles. i want each principle for myself and attune to this design of livin because i genuinely want to yield. it is with the continuin spiritual growth i receive from livin with my peers, i get to continue to live with peace of mind. when i interact with others out in the world, i get to witness and experience Gods grace and love. i have developed, in my recovery, an awareness of the beauty of this world and an appreciation of what people can produce. ive found that spirituality is always creative; it is at the center of all that is good, noble, and inspirin, and i appreciate and have a feelin of belongin to the beauty of this world because of simple conformity. i no longer have to make life harder than what it already is. sometimes i am struck by the paucity of life in recovery and the information i get from just bein open and willin. with prayer and meditation, i must get to work. my goals aint gonna be done for me by merely sittin idle, its up to me to do the work. conformin to willingness ive learned how to forgive so i may be forgiven, ive learned how to give hope so i may be given hope, and ive learned how to love so i may be given love. thank God im forgiven! thank God im loved! ive learned the importance of personal inventory. how it is a tool that allows me to begin healin relationships. ive learned that today, with the help of personal inventory, i get to enjoy relationships with others. as i continue to be willin to conform and comply to the recovery way of life, i will seek to play a richer, more responsible part in my own recovery and in the lives of others passin on the blessins ive been gifted. 1 day @ a time...
