A DAY AT A TIME
REFLECTION FOR THE DAY
Merely to change my behavior, and what I say and do, doesn't prove there's been a change in my actual inner attitude. I'm deceiving myself if I believe I can somehow completely disguise my true feelings. They'll somehow come through, prolonging the difficulties in my relationships with others. I have to avoid half-measures in getting rid of the trouble-some emotions. I've been trying to hide. Have I taken an honest inventory of myself?
TODAY I PRAY
May I know that feeling will come out somehow -- sometimes barely disguised as behavior that I cannot always understand. But that perhaps is more acceptable to me than the root emotion that caused it. May I be completely and vigilantly honest with myself. May I be given the insight that comes through depending upon a Higher Power.
TODAY I WILL REMEMBER
Feelings can come out "sideways".
It is good to have an end to journey towards; but it is the journey that matters in the end. ~Ursula K. LeGuin
