Finding Light in the Smallest of Things
Hi Bean,
it's a dark night for me. Here in the middle of winter, or what feels like the middle of winter.. I've made about 4 program calls and no one is home. it's too late to call you, I think. So, I'm reading and posting. I found this passage in one of my books that really spoke to me and thought you might like it. Here goes.
"Today, maintaining my serenity is my first priority. My connection with my higher power is the source of serenity, so maintaining that connection is my "first thing".
If I imagine I am in a dark room and that my higher power is my only source of light, then my best hope for navigating around the furniture will be to bring that source of light with me as I move through the room. Otherwise, I may get through the room, but my passage is sure to be slow, confusing and possibly painful.
Today's Reminder: As I think about what to do with this day, I will set some time aside of what is really important. I will put first things first today."
from Courage to Change
I think the imagery is what I like best about it. Having visualizations is a tool that I'm really holding onto.
But, why am I posting a picture of this puppy?! Why not? I found this in my album and have no idea where it came from. I can only guess that it was when I was online 4 years ago looking for puppies to adopt. I remember we were looking at Golden's at first. This little one makes me smile, so adorable. We should always have a puppy picture in our back pockets!
Love to you, Ali
