my daily reflections…

Perseverance in Step Ten is not simply endurance, but the active integration of the wisdom gained from the first nine steps into the fabric of my daily life. early in recovery, the notion of applyin all i had learned “just for today” felt overwhelmin, almost impossible. yet over time i have come to see Perseverance not as a heavy burden but as a disciplined practice of honesty, humility, and balance; an ongoin willingness to examine my actions, thoughts, and motives in light of spiritual principles. in this sense, Perseverance becomes the acid test: can i live faithfully in alignment with recoverys truths under all conditions, not only when life feels easy? this daily discipline invites me to see every situation as an opportunity for growth, guided by my HP who both designs and refines the structure of my life. through reflection, i discover that the qualities which sustain me, patience, honesty, and openness, are freely given, and it is only in neglectin them that i pay the price of relapse into the days of doin my dirt. Perseverance, then, is not grim determination but hopeful practice, an ongoin commitment to live with integrity, to embrace recoverys gifts as freely offered, and to remember that each moment is an occasion to demonstrate the transformative power of spiritual principles in action. 1 day @ a time...
