A Day at a Time
August 2 Reflection for the Day
When I begin to compare my life with the lives of others, I begin to move towards the edge of the murky swamp of self- pity. On the other hand , if I feel what I'm doing is right and good, I want be so dependent on the admiration or approval of others. Applause is well and good, but it is not essential to my inner contentment. I'm in the program to get rid of self-pity, not to increase its power to destroy me.Have I learned how others have dealt with their problems so I can apply these lessons to my own life?
Today I Pray
God, make me ever mindful of where I came from and the new goals I have been encouraged to set. May I stop playing to a audience for their approval, since I am perfectly capable of admiring or applauding myself if I feel I have earned it. Help me make myself attractive from the inside,, so it will show through, instead of adorning the outside for effect. I am tired of stage make-up and costumes,God:help me be myself.
Today I will Remember

It's nice to not have to put on the stage make-up and costumes and just throw on a flannel shirt & overalls & go barefoot! lol! :) (I don't really dress that way, that's a Georgia myth) hee hee...
