my daily reflections…

im still amazed at the how and why recovery works. even after over 17 yrs. of recovery, the peace and serenity i thought i would have accomplished, still continues to expand, and cultivate new and different horizons. the initial look at the shortcomins i had, opened the door for more honest attempts to dig deeper within. as time has passed, and the sands of time have eroded the tough exterior of my ego, more has been revealed. its an often surprisin find when ive thought ive already dealt with somethin and another level of it shows up illuminatin the need for a fresher look usin the growth and evolution of my recovery. even as ive already worked and lived past the superficial effects a shortcomin showed me, these deeper more intensive findins cannot be ignored. tryin to keep it as simple as i can, often times, the use of the simplest forms of the spiritual principles can be used to grow from these upheavals. its the amazin feature of the how and why recovery works, and i love it. i need to remain willingly responsible and take the “ism” out of it and allow my HP to guide me to the proper resource to live the change past a new, deeper, level and understandin of a shortcomin i hadnt found before. its the use of humility in its simplest form, allowin another to show me how faith in my HP can help me overcome loneliness, fear, and anxiety; its the want to have faith that my HP will help me. its how i can expect the miracle of recovery to change my life. its discipline and it works—it really does. action and more action is required of me. motivation may get me goin, but discipline keeps me growin and action, changes shit. i aint got all the answers mannn. its truth that i must chart my own course through life, but i aint gotta do it alone. humility has commenced to have a wider meanin, showin me how to live toward a deeper peace of mind and serenity. 15 yrs. ago, i thought i knew everythin about myself and how i can use recovery as i grow within i realize i know nothin. times concept of education is a progressive discovery of my own ignorance. 1 day @ a time...
