A DAY AT A TIME
REFLECTION FOR THE DAY
We may not know any specifics about the activities of today; we may not know whether we'll be alone or with others. We may feel the day contains too much time -- or not enough. We may be facing tasks we've eager to complete, or tasks we've been resisting. Though the details of each person's day differ, each person's day does hold one similarity: We each have the opportunity to choose to think positive thoughts. The choice depends less on our outside activities than on our inner commitment. Can I accept that I alone have the power to control my attitude?
TODAY I PRAY
May I keep the fire of inner commitment alive throught this whole, glorious day, whether my activites are a succession of workaday tasks or free-form and creative. May I choose to make this a good day for me, and for those around me.
TODAY I WILL REMEMBER
Keep the commitment.
God,
Grant me the Serenity to accept the things I can not change.
The Courage to change the things I can.
And the Wisdom to know the difference.
~Amen
It is good to have an end to journey towards; but it is the journey that matters in the end. ~Ursula K. LeGuin
