I've been working to make the time first thing in them morning to do my daily reading. The quote from Courage to Change did a good job summing up and helping me re-focus before I start the day.
"Today is only a small manageable segment of time in which our difficulties need not overwhelm us. This lifts from our hearts and minds the heavy weight of both past and future." One Day at a Time in Al-Anon
May your heart and mind be open and light today.
Such a great idea! It's been my experience that if I manage to get centered first thing in the morning, then I am less apt to stray and more apt to return quickly to that "in the moment, for the moment" frame of mind. It's amazing how much wisdom can be packed into such a few paragraphs in those daily readers.
ReplyDeleteNice to see you back on the blog! I know it's such a good release for you. Also, appreciate of course, your honest testimonials and willingness to share your day-to-day. I find it helps me feel less "lone-survivor-tossed-on-the-stormy-sea" to read your posts. Loved the meditation from CtC today. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI have been thinking a lot about how time is moving on, the days going faster and faster. But that doesn't make my heart light. So today, I'm going to focus just on it and do my best to stay in this day only with a light heart.
