Fears are educated into us and can, if we wish, be educated
out. “As faith grows, so does inner security.” AA Co-Founder, Bill W., January 1962 When I begin to sit with the dawn in solitude, I begin to really live. It makes me treasure every single moment of life. - Gloria Vanderbilt |

DAILY
REFLECTIONS CHARACTER
BUILDING Demands
made upon other people for too much attention, protection,
and love can only invite domination or revulsion.
. . . TWELVE STEPS
AND TWELVE TRADITIONS, p. 44 When I
uncovered my need for approval in the Fourth Step, I didn't
think it should rank as a character defect. I wanted to think of
it more as an asset (that is, the desire to please people). It
was quickly pointed out to me that this "need" can be very
crippling. Today I still enjoy getting the approval of
others, but I am not willing to pay the price I used to pay
to get it. I will not bend myself into a pretzel to get others to
like me. If I get your approval, that's fine; but if I don't, I
will survive without it. I am responsible for speaking what
I perceive to be the truth, not what I think others may
want to hear. Similarly, my
false pride always kept me overly concerned
about my reputation. Since being enlightened in the A.A.
program, my aim is to improve my character. |

POT LUCK Wheresoever you go,
go with all your heart.
~Confucius Our program asks us "to be
fearless and thorough from the very start." We are warned that some of
us will hold on to old ideas and that the result will be nil unless "we
let go absolutely." Recovery asks that we put our heart into our
programs. How? By working the Steps. By calling group members to see how
they're doing or to let them know how we're doing. By meeting with our
sponsors so they can get to know us and guide us in working the Steps. This is just what we need. We must not sit on the sidelines of
the program. We should not settle for the illusion of commitment that we got
by drinking and drugging. We need to surrender, to let go absolutely and
enjoy the ride. Prayer for the Day
Higher Power, I give my heart and soul to you to do with as
you want. Place me where I can do the most good. I pray for willingness to let go absolutely. Today's Action
For today I will work at stepping into the day with all my
heart. I will work at having the attitude and actions of letting go
absolutely. |
