It is both powerful and peaceful to know that we are all at choice.
Love these reading, they are short and pack a punch. This really stood out for me today. So many times, I was a victim of other people's choices. I didn't know that I had a choice and that I could choose again and leave the situation and change my mind. It is good to know that I can choose again, before I get myself into such a situation again when I see the situation I am in, going in a direction that is not good for me.

This reminds me that I it can stop with me, but didn't because I didn't find recovery soon enough, to pass the goodness on to my son. I passed on my own insecurities, habits, and a phobias.
I didn't know about owning my own power. I didn't know about love and expressing it.
I had a lot of hidden anger at my parents and didn't realize it. Not only from my adult years but from my childhood. Recovery is a healing process. I am responsible for my own recovery.

Life is an experience. If I am shut off from the sun, I am isolted and living in darkness. How can I see? Isolation is part of my dis-ease. I am cut off from the Sunshine of the Spirit.

Joy is an in the moment feeling, something to be experienced to it's fullest when it happens. Today's reading really helped me. I know things and yet in the moment, when you are caught up in something, you tend to forget. Thankfully, today wasn't one of those days.
I felt something off, stopped to do a meditation and was able to go on and do what I needed to do, even though I went down to get my mail and found out that I have to do jury duty next month. That was not the most joyful of things to look forward to. Although I am honoured to be asked, not sure it is something I really want to do. I knew there was a possibility because I got sent a questionairre to fill out a few weeks ago.
Sometimes life asks us to do things we don't want to do. If it is meant to be, it will be. It is not something that I need to fear, my God will go with me.

Time for Joy - Book - Quote
I am beginning to actually feel the energy of love that I have inside. My entire being is in the process of being transformed with love.
I will never forget the first time I felt love and laughter in my life. They both took time. I was 3 years sober when I felt the laugher in my gut! It was real and alive. It made me feel the same way. Three years was a big time of new awarenss for me.
The love that I first felt was from my group. They loved me back to good healthy. My family was supportive but they didn't have the understanding. It took a lot of time to find the love within myself. It took a lot of affirmations and the working of the Steps to truly connect with it.

Peace and relaxation flow through me with every breath that I take.Love these daily readings. Yesterday at my home group we discussed Step 11. We shared about how we can breathe in the goodness and peace and let go of tension and strife. I just have to remember that peace is only a breath away!
