A Quote for Today
March 27 Reflection for the Day from A Day At A Time
"Storing up grievances is not only a waste of time, but a waste of life that could be lived to greater satisfaction. If I keep a ledger of "oppressions and indignities," I'm only restoring them to painful reality.
"The horror of that moment," the King said, " I shall never, never forget."
"You will though," said the Queen,"if you don't make a memorandum of it."
(Lewis Carroll ~ Through The Looking Glass)
AM I KEEPING A SECRET STOREHOUSE FOR THE WRECKAGE OF MY PAST?
Today I Pray
God Keep me from harboring the sludge from the past - grievances, annoyances, grudges, oppressions, wrongs, injustices, put-downs, slights, hurts. They will nag at me and consume my time in rehashing what I "might have said" or done until I face each one, name the emotion it produced in me, settle it as best I can - and forget it. May I empty my storehouse of old grievances.
Today I will Remember
Don't rattle old bones.
Morning peeps
It is good to have an end to journey towards; but it is the journey that matters in the end. ~Ursula K. LeGuin
