Today's reading in Easy Does It was about choices.

Now that we are in recovery we have choices, whereas prior to recovery there was no option for choices. We were stuck in our old ways. Our choices can be either good or bad. But even the bad ones can be fixed by accepting our errors and trying again.

Several anograms were mentioned in the reading which I would like to share with you:-

C.H.O.I.C.E.

C is for COURAGE
H is for HUMILITY
O is for OPTIMISM
I is for INDUSTRY
C is for CAUTION
E is for ENERGY

When we use all of these thing it leads to happiness.


H is for HUMILITY
A is for AWAKENING
P is for PLENTY
P is for PROGRAM
I is for INSIGHT
N is for NEW LIFE
E is for EXCITEMENT
S is for SPIRITUALITY
S is for SERENITY


Listening to our Higher Power will guide us to the correct choices. Have you listened to your Higher Power for you choices today?

For me, a choice is simply that, a choice. It's neither good nor bad--each choice comes with it's own set of pay-offs, some good, some not so good. But I've come to understand that nothing is all bad. It's all about the lesson. For me, it's all about my HP whittling away at my character defects to help me hone my choices to purer motives instead of selfish ones.

As long as I'm centered on right motives the payoff seems to be less painful---most times! LOL
Good acronyms!

Love this, it reminds me that I need to check my motives and intent.
