that reflects who i truly am. the reading this morning evoked a **positive** emotional reaction from me. yes, i could be like my peers and say i **liked** the reading, but i am not quite sure that is an accurate description. even though i am pretty sure that my Fantasy Football season is pretty well shot and i am about to go on call for a week. this morning, as i got outside for my four mile workout, i felt “lucky” to have the desire to get up and just do it. it was cold and snowy, but the pavement was not slick and the wind, as nasty as it was, blowing snow into my face, made me feel “alive.” yes, there are a few rainbows and daisies this morning as i prepare to watch the home team see if they can pull out a win.
as i walked, i thought about the conversation i had with a peer on Wednesday night. he was a bit put off that the spiritual path i follow, speaks about living a life balanced between opposites. when it comes to recovery, if it were not for my checkered past, i do not believe i would have lasted as long as i have on this path. the contrast between how i behaved “back in the day,” and how i behave today, is the evidence i need to ask for the power to stay clean, just for today. i get to CHOOSE what i do today and i GET to take responsibility for the consequences those choices bring. as scary as that once was, today i revel in being able to do so. with that thought on the top of my head, i will pack this in and head on over to spend some time with a friend or two and see if the home team can pull one out.
