Just for today, I choose to let go of the blockages that stand in the way of me being a clear, clean channel in order to recover from the disease of addiction.

Just for today. I will look at my emotions anew. I will let go of the past and look at them from a new perspective.
I need to look at how far I have come instead of focusing on how far I have yet to go. I must remember it is one day at a time.

Just for today, I will be patient and gentle with myself. I will not beat myself up over not going to the meeting tonight. I cancelled my Dart rides scout 4 pm and then took myself to bed. This is the Lady who doesn't sleep, I slept 3 hi ours. When I look at the whole picture, I slept last night 10-12, this morning 10:45 am - 1:47 pm, and with the additional 3, that makes 8 hours sleep. I must be sick. Guess I will give myself permission to be sick and I will scramble 2 eggs and have them with fresh tomato. I even have some egg bread to go with it

Just for today, I will try to be unafraid. The word fear seldom comes up in my meditations. I did a meditation last night and it was prevalent. My biggest fear is that people won't listen and discount what I have to say and what I feel about the situation as unimportant. The time of the almighty dollar overriding what the client has to say and discounting it as, "she is old, she doesn't know.". How did they think we got to be old?

Just for today, I will try to move forward with my life. I will not let things denture me from my goal. To get back to exercise, is my main focus. I just have to tell my feet and legs that they are to make the journey too.

Just for today, I will stay in the moment accepting what is, recognizing that it may not be what I want, but it is leading me to where my God would have me be. The first Step, honesty, surrender, and acceptance.

Just for today, I will stay in the moment. I will allow the day to unfold as it should.
I am looking forward to Autumn Leaf Roundup to start at 5 pm.
I will allow myself to get excited, but will try to stay in reality and live the day to its fullest instead of projecting ahead.

Just for today, I will practice patience and allow the day to unfold as it should, instead of trying to make things happen. I will try to stay on the same page as my God, instead of trying for a peak preview.

Just for today, I will listen to that voice within. It is empowered by my God to show me a new way to live. All I had to do was put my day into my God's Care.
For so many years I turned it out because I listened to others tell me I didn't know. In today if I don't know, it is because the timing isn't right. I am not stupid.

Just for today, I will do it from a place of Love no matter what it is. I will not leave strings and conditions attached and take a leap of faith that things will turn out as they should, not always as I would have them be, and quite often in spite of me.

Just for today, I will try to be more patient and allow things to unfold instead of trying to give them a jump start.
My meditation cards told me patience two days in a row!

Just for today. I will try to assertive and not be aggressive at my heart specialist appointment. It has been a while and I would like it done today, but willing to book a new one. I feel like there isn't enough communication between St. Peter Staff, my heart specialist and my family doctor. I just had new blood work done, so hopefully it has a good tale to tell.

Just for today, I will get honest. For so many years I looked at life through other people's eyes. I allowed myself to be controlled and gave up my power. I stayed in abusive relationships and marriages. I thought my life was the way it was because of other people's treatment of me. I thought my life was bad as a result of having these people in my life who messed me up with their abuse and addictions, with no thought of my own. I didn't want to take an honest look at my life. If I let you close to me, you wouldn't like me, so I felt like I had to embellish it.
The first step to recovery is honesty. Not just cash register honest, but a new level of self honesty.

Just for today, I will work on my attitude. I will try to make a gratitude list.
They say, "it takes one to know one." Have seen a few walking around, a sure sign I need to work on my own.

Just for today, I will think of ways to be grateful. Grateful that the 12 Steps, Traditions, and Concepts are applicable to all areas of my Life. NA means Narcotics Anonymous NOT Not Applicable. Alcohol is a drug. Just because it is legal, doesn't mean it is no longer a drug. Food, work, gambling, etc. Can lead to the same soul sickness of any street drug

Just for today, I will turn my sense of humor over to my Higher Power for healing. I have noticed that it has slipped back over that early line. Today I told my doctor that I had made notes and listed all the things wrong with me because I forget. He said, "I have that problem too. I said that I had an excuse (old age) he did not."

I will be patient with myself and allow my God work on His Plan in His timeframe.
