Slogan for Today – Just For Today - 9/16/15
Permalink  

Just For Today: The slogan, Just For Today tells us that

things are more manageable when we deal with and live in

the present. Things that seem way too difficult to manage

long term may seem more manageable if we deal with them

just for today. We can move forward in small steps rather

than be overwhelmed by trying to change everything at

one time. This is described further in the Al-Anon pamphlet,

Just For Today. Let It Begin With Me: 

Happy Wednesday  ......  smile

Happy Wednesday back @ ya Debb - thanks for your service!

Living in the current day was one great gift for me. I was always in the wrong period and wondered why I rarely had peace. I was either stuck/dwelling in the past or I was trying to forecast/control the future. I find peace and joy when I stay in the day/moment and work to turn it over and allow God (HP) to do his job for me and others.

I still find that when I am uncomfortable, irritable and/or discontent, I've strayed often from living in this day.

Thank you for the reminder - off to play Golf this morning and then my F2F meeting! Make it a great day!

Thanks Debb Great slogan and my favorite piece of literature. I carry this little bookmark with me where ever I go. It always helps to reinforce program principles immediately.
