~SPIRITUAL~ A DAY AT A TIME

02-15 REFLECTION FOR THE DAY
When I become angry, can I admit to it and state it as a fact without allowing it to build up and burst out in inappropriate ways?  Pent-up anger, I've finally begun to learn, quickly shatters the peace of mind that's so critical to my on-going recovery.  When I become enraged and lose control.  I unwittingly hand over control to the person, place, or thing with which I am enraged.  WHEN I'M ANGRY WILL I TRY TO REMEMBER THAT I AM ENDANGERING MYSELF?  WILL I "COUNT TO TEN" BY CALLING A FRIEND IN THE PROGRAM AND SAY THE SERENITY PRAYER ALOUD?

TODAY I PRAY
May I recognize angry feelings and let them out a little a time, stating my anger as a fact, instead of allowing it to fester into rage and explode uncontrollably.

TODAY I WILL REMEMBER
Anger is.  Rage need not be.

It is good to have an end to journey towards; but it is the journey that matters in the end.  ~Ursula K. LeGuin
