โˆž accepting what comes โˆž

Posted: Wed, Mar 30, 2005 05:41:49 AM

yesterday was aligning myself to GOD‘s will and today is accepting that no matter what happens i will be provided with what i need to live with it. feels like a blend of FAITH and acceptance reading to me. this morning while my FAITH is not lagging, it is the acceptance piece i am having a bit of trouble with. i never have been good at accepting that things just are and i have a tendency to want to whine or -- gasp -- act out on one of my less spiritual shortcomings. well i do have choices today and i choose to face this day as best i can, i choose to tolerate what i cannot accept, i choose to let go and have the FAITH that i will get whatever i need to live with what comes and most of all i choose NOT TO USE TODAY!
so that being said what exactly am i going to do today to support my decision? well for one i have already called another addict and probably will call two or three more, i will do the job my employer pays me to do, i will go to a meeting, i will finish up my current writing assignment and call my sponsor.
so i guess i can accept that no matter what happens, GOD will provide me with what i need to live with it.

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

3) If this transformation became to me an object of desire, I would
express the desire by the nameless simplicity.

Simplicity without a name
Is free from all external aim.
With no desire, at rest and still,
All things go right as of their will.
