world, but choose to change your
mind about the world. -A Course In Miracles I have the happiness of the
passing moment, and what more can mortal
ask? -~George R. Gissing Each second we live is a
new and unique moment of the universe, a moment that never was
before and never will be again. -Pau Casals “With the clock ticking
like it is, I do not have time for
anger, resentment, or self-pity. Time is far too precious.” ~ Durham, North Carolina,

Twenty-Four Hours A.A. Thought For The Day in regaining my sobriety and opening up an entirely new life for
me? A.A. has made it possible for me to take on other It has made a full life possible for me. It would perhaps be wrong
if all my activities were limited to A.A. work. in play and in hobbies of various kinds. But will I desert A.A. because of this? Will I accept a diploma and become a graduate of A.A.? Do I realize I could have nothing worth while without A.A.? and that is to live the way you believe God wants you to live. Live with God in that secret place of the spirit and you will You will have a deep sense of satisfaction. The world will have meaning and you will have a place in the
world, work to do that counts in the eternal order of things. Many things will work for you and with you, as long as you I pray that I may not only work for now, but also for eternity. |

Daily Reflection MY CHECKLIST, NOT
YOURS Gossip barbed with
our anger, a polite form of murder by character
assassination, has its satisfactions for us, too. Here we are not
trying to help those we criticize; we are trying to proclaim
our own righteousness. TWELVE STEPS AND
TWELVE TRADITIONS, p. 67 Sometimes I don't
realize that I gossiped about someone until the end of the
day, when I take an inventory of the day's activities,
and then, my gossiping appears like a blemish in my
beautiful day. How could I have said something like that?
Gossip shows its ugly head during a coffee break or
lunch with business associates, or I may gossip during the
evening, when I'm tired from the day's activities, and feel
justified in bolstering my ego at the expense of someone
else. Character defects
like gossip sneak into my life when I am not making a
constant effort to work the Twelve Steps of recovery. I need to
remind myself that my uniqueness is the blessing of my
being, and that applies equally to everyone who crosses my path
in life's journey. Today the only inventory I need to
take is my own. I'll leave judgment of others to the Final
Judge—Divine Providence. |

Pot Luck "Those who leave
everything in God’s hands, will eventually see God’s hand
in everything." I was many years sober when I
first heard this quote. It reminded me of how I had turned my recovery over
to God, and how everything had worked out. I got through my Fourth Step—when
I thought it was going to tear me apart—and God helped me make all those terrifying
amends as well. I can now see God’s hand in every part of my recovery, but
what about the rest of my life? Lately, I’ve been back in a
lot of financial fear. I’ve been worrying about my work and stressing about
the future, and the old thoughts of, What is going to become of me? have
crept back in. The difference between this and recovery is that I’ve kept God
out of it lately, thinking instead that I have to handle this part of my life
by myself. This has made my life unmanageable again. Last week, I hit an emotional
bottom. My wife finally sat me down and said, “Enough is enough.” I knew it
was time to surrender. When I did, a wave of relief washed over me, and I
have been free of fear since I left it all in God’s hands. I was given the
perspective to see that He has been handling my financial future all along,
and that I’m a lot better off than I think I am. Once again, I see God’s
hands in everything, and—as long as I leave things there—I’ll be just fine. |
