**SPIRITUAL** A DAY AT A TIME

05/24 REFLECTION FOR THE DAY When we're new in The Program, we're novices at reaching out for friendship -- or even accepting it when it's offered.  Sometimes we're not quite sure how to do it or, indeed, whether it will actually work.  Gradually, however, we become restored; we become teachable.  We learn, for example, as Moliere wrote, "The more we love our friends, the less we flatter them,"  JUST FOR TODAY, WILL I NOT SHOW ANYONE THAT MY FEELINGS ARE HURT? TODAY I PRAY May God help me to discover what true friendship is.  In my new relationships, I pray that I may not be so eager for approval that I will let myself be dishonest -- through flattery, half-truths, false cheeriness, protective white lies. TODAY I WILL REMEMBER A friend is honest. Boy is there nothing but TRUTH in that one.. I know I always question *friends* when they are soo sweet I dump.. (pun intended) hugss with love
