04/29 REFLECTION FOR THE DAY
As I grow in The Program -- sharing, caring, and becoming more and more active -- I find that it's becoming easier to live in the Now. Even my vocabulary is changing. No longer is every other sentence salted with such well-used phrases as "could've," "should've," "would've," "might've." What's done is done and what will be will be. The only time that really matters is Now. AM I GAINING REAL PLEASURE AND SERENITY AND PEACE IN THE PROGRAM?
TODAY I PRAY
That I may collect all my scattered memories from the past and high-flown schemes and overblown fears for the future and compact them into the neater confines of Today. Only by living in the Now may I keep my balance, without bending backwards to the past or tipping forward into the future. May I stop trying to get my arms around my whole unwieldy lifetime and carry it around in a gunny sack with me wherever I go.
TODAY I WILL REMEMBER
Make room for today.

Seek always to do some good, somewhere. Every man has to seek in his own way to realize his true worth. You must give some time to your fellow man. For remember, you don't live in a world all your own. Your brothers are here too.

04/28 REFLECTION FOR THE DAY
I will resolve to observe with new interest even the commonplace things that happen today. If I learn to see everything with a fresh eye, perhaps I'll find I have countless reasons for contentment and gratitude. When I find myself trapped in the quicksand of my negative thoughts I'll turn away from them -- and grab for the lifesaving strength of sharing with others in The Program. DO I CARRY MY WEIGHT AS AN ALL-IMPORTANT LINK IN THE WORLDWIDE CHAIN OF THE PROGRAM?
TODAY I PRAY
I pray that God will open my eyes to the smallest everyday wonders, that I may notice and list among my blessings things like just feeling good, being able to think clearly. Even when I make a simple, unimportant choice, like whether to order coffee or tea or a soft drink, may I be reminded that the power of choice is a gift from God.
TODAY I WILL REMEMBER
I am blessed with the freedom of choice.
