Also enjoy tomorrow Momentary pleasures are great, provided they don’t result in long-term burdens. If the cost lingers longer than the pleasure, it’s probably not worth it. With each choice you make, consider more than just the immediate results. Though you cannot stop the future from coming, you can avoid making it needlessly burdensome. No matter how much fun you have today, tomorrow will arrive precisely at its scheduled time. Position yourself so you can welcome it with eagerness rather than with regret. Give your future self the benefit of your thoughtful consideration. Make your future self thankful for what you’re doing right now. Yes, by all means live in the moment, making the most of your present opportunities. Just keep in mind there are many other moments to follow. Enjoy today in such a way that enables you to also enjoy tomorrow. Be good to the person you’ll soon become. — Ralph Marston

This is an awesome read from todays thought.
Resolve to be thyself; and know that who finds himself, loses his misery. ~Matthew Arnold Our need for approval compels us to try to look good - no matter what's going on. We imagine that somehow everything will be okay as long as it looks okay. Our hearts may be breaking from fear, disillusionment, and rejection, real or imagined, but we keep smiling so that no one will guess. Why do we do this to ourselves? Is it so hard to turn to a friend and say, "Hey, I'm hurting. I’ve been having a bad time and I need help"? Would the earth tremble if we said it right out, just like that? We're not likely to get what we don't ask for. Instead of denying that our knees are shaking, our hands are sweating, and our stomachs are in torment, we can admit and share the truth. We don’t have to say "Fine!" when someone in the program asks us how we're doing. Our real friends aren't impressed by stiff upper lips; they're impressed by personal honesty. Today, I will tell someone the truth about how I feel. If I'm not fine, I won't say that I am. |

Petitions to my Higher Power
God, Each day You present me with new opportunities to build up my faith and renew my strength. When the time is right, lead me on a path to helping newcomers. Help me to keep my focus on the narrow path and walk hand in hand with You today. Amen. |
