my daily reflections…

this readin is so true; it describes exactly how i let pride rule my life in negative ways. i always thought i was the 1 who provided the things in my life that i needed to make my way. i could never admit to myself that just maybe, there was somethin else guidin my life. today i see different. im graced by my HP fer the things i have and am fortunate to be able to recognize this. it is then that i must give all the credit to Him and realize i am truly blessed. today i get to use pride fer its intended positive purpose and meanin. more, more, and more, if one was good then by God ya just knew two had to be better. i was never satisfied with anythin good. nothin was ever, just, good enough. when it didnt seem to do the fix, i took more in excess to hide what ev it was that wasnt good enough. see it was all about me, forget anybody else, if i wasnt happy then neither could anybody else be. as much as i tried to make things better they always only became worse. i thought the only way i could make it was to have twice the material things the neighbors or my friends had. it didnt stop with the material items either, when drinkin or druggin, i took the same approach. i had forgotten, and didnt care fer, the real reason i was livin life and tryin to make it in the world. in the end, my greed, my ego, my pride, had cost me everythin i had ever worked fer and i lost it all, damn near losin me. it wasnt until i came into this thing we do and learned about the rearrangement of my priorities that i was able to turn my life around. the work then had really started. 1 day @ a time…
