Today's thought is:

Love has a hundred gentle ends.

--Leonora Speyer


Letting go is a process that is seldom easy. For many, its meaning is elusive. How do we "let go"? Letting go means removing our attention from a particular experience or person and putting our focus on the here and now. We hang on to the past, to past hurts, but also to past joys. We have to let the past pass. The struggle to hang on to it, any part of it, clouds the present. You can't see the possibilities today is offering if your mind is still drawn to what was.

Letting go and be a gentle process. Our trust in our higher power and our faith that good will prevail, in spite of appearances, eases the process. And we must let each experience end, as its moment passes, whether it is good or bad, love or sorrow. It helps to remember that all experiences contribute to our growth and wholeness. No experience will be ignored by the inner self who is charting our course. All are parts of the journey. And every moment has a gentle end, but no moment is forgotten.

My journey today is akin to yesterday's journey and tomorrow's too. I will savor each moment and be ready for the next.

Timeless Wisdom by Karen Casey
Always a good lesson. How it works! Living in today. The key word to the slogan "Live and let live," is the first word. Living our own life and letting everything else fall by the way side. Without me, I have nothing. I can't give to others if I don't remember to top myself up. Without you, there is no me. In order to maintain my sobriety, I must share it with others.
Soundness of mind is hard to achieve if we don't learn to let go and let our God direct our path.
