May 3rd..a.a. Thought For The Day....

Goodmorning everyone,

A.A. teaches us to take it easy. We learn how to relax and to stop worrying about the past or future, to give up our resentments and hates and tempers, to stop being critical of people, and to try to help them instead. That's what "Easy Does It" means. So in the time that's left to me to live, I'm gonna try to take it easy, to relax and not worry, to try to be helpful to others, and to trust God. For what,s left of my life, is my motto going to be "Easy Does It"?

Meditation for the day...

I must overcome myself before I can truley forgive other people for injuries done to me. The self in me cannot fogive injuries. The very thought of wrongs means that my self is in the foreground. Since the self cannot forgive, I must overcome my selfishness. I must cease trying to forgive those who fretted and wronged me. It is a mistake for me to even think about these injuries. I must aim at overcoming myself in my daily life and then I will find there is nothing in me that remembers injury, because the only thing injured, my selfishness, is gone.

Prayer for the day...

I pray that I may hold no resentments. I pray that my mind may be washed clean of all past hates and fears.


Take care...............God bless......"One day At A Time"..........................Bob

Thankyou for that Bob,
I just had the first occasion of the day to apply the compassion I recieved in your post.
'Easy does it" made me imediately correct a rising temper towards my 18 yr old son for a "misdourmeaner offence", and not let something stupid ruin both of our days. I hope you have a wonderful day (and Gina too) , Your words have made my day much better already.
Your friend,
Nancy
