โˆž because my thoughts are being shaped in recovery by the spiritual ideals โˆž

Posted: Sun, Aug 5, 2007 11:06:06 AM

i find in my developing relationship with the God i have come to understand.
no longer does addiction shape my thoughts.
a true vision of myself, shaped by spiritual principles and a developing relationship with a HIGHER POWER. some days a very tough idea to swallow. most days an idea that i am more than happy to accept. today is a good day, i have been working on restoring my laptop to brand new, and am progressing well in that task, i had the opportunity to attend a wedding yesterday, and i did not have to act out and i am actually looking forward to a meeting tonight. and such as it is, i am actually happy with who and what i am today. i think i have a clear vision about what is what right now, but i have had very little interaction with the real world today, so after a bit all of this may change. and you know what, i can actually accept that idea too! what an amazing feeling for me this morning.
so off to concentrate on getting ready for the work week and having a bit of fun.

Tao Te Ching

☯ The Tao that can be spoken is not the eternal Tao ☯

The Tao Teh King, or The Tao and Its Characteristics
by Lao-Tse
Translated by James Legge

Book 1

2) Shrinking looked they like those who wade through a stream in winter;
irresolute like those who are afraid of all around them; grave like
a guest (in awe of his host); evanescent like ice that is melting
away; unpretentious like wood that has not been fashioned into anything;
vacant like a valley, and dull like muddy water.
