doing the best ···;
Posted: Thu, Nov 18, 2004 05:34:59 AM
i have a problem realizing what it is exactly that i DO have today, although a daily 10th step inventory has helped me get a grip on the tools , abilities, assets, and defects that present themselves on a day to day basis, there are days that i seem clueless until the end of the day what is really going on. the reading today suggests that i have all i really need to be the best i can, if i allow myself the freedom to be present to my current situation.
the things i do know i have today is a simple program of recovery, a Higher Power that will give me what i need right now, a sponsor, and friends that can guide me through whatever is going on. i also have a bit of experience, if i allow myself to slow down and access that knowledge. i may make a mistake or three today, but i am not doomed to repeat the same mistakes over and over again, if i sit back, honestly evaluate what went on and what my part was in it, and allow the program to work.
