Just for today, I will not beat myself up. I will love myself in today.

MajestyJo · 11-11-2017, 04:09 PM

Just for today, I will turn my day over to my Higher Power and ask that He give me what I need to do what I need to do in today. If I don't make my chili today, I will have to throw the hamburger out. I have books to read and I want to do that and not cook.

MajestyJo · 11-12-2017, 06:52 PM

Just for today, I am willing to listen to learn and learn to listen. Watching back to back shows of Chopped, looking for something to tempt my appetite. I have trouble with food these days.

MajestyJo · 11-14-2017, 10:50 PM

Just for today, I will accept what is, even if I don't like it. Have had a lot of tears lately, I look at it as a positive sign, that I am healing from the inside out.

MajestyJo · 11-15-2017, 06:08 AM

Just for today, I will reach out and connect with others. I will do the do things I need to do for my recovery.

dwmoeller · 11-15-2017, 01:37 PM

Just for today, I will show kindness to everyone I meet throughout the day. Something as simple as a smile, a hello, push a button on the elevator for someone.

MajestyJo · 11-16-2017, 11:56 PM

Just for today, I will give thanks for my God who always seems to know what I need. That connection with other addicts and when I can't get out and about, someone will phone me. I am hoping to make it across the street to my group tomorrow. I have had offers of an escort if I need it.

MajestyJo · 11-21-2017, 11:20 PM

Just for today, I will reach out and connect with someone. I gave a newcomer my phone number tonight. I hope she calls me.

MajestyJo · 11-22-2017, 01:44 AM

Just for today, I will be watchful of my disease. It tries to lure me in, and the addict in me is just waiting to pounce if I am not watchful. Especially when it comes to food and computers. I have to turn them over to my God, one day at a time.

According to Jamie Sams, the Dolphin means manna. The food that fed the people of Israel in the desert. Dolphin is the keeper of the sacred breath of life and teaches us how to release our emotions.

Just for today, I will give thanks. Thanks to the internet, I can celebrate with my American friends. Gratitude is a year round thing. Each day of sobriety is a gift and a reason to be thankful.

MajestyJo · 11-24-2017, 09:45 PM

Just for today, I will love and accept others for who they are, not as I would have them be. We all come from different directions to get to this recovery road. I can not judge others, I haven't walked in their shoes. We are not bad people trying to get good. We are sick people with the dis-ease of addiction, and we are trying to get well, one day at a time.

MajestyJo · 11-25-2017, 06:45 PM

Just for today, I will not procrastinate. I will remember that the word is a 5 syllable word for sloth. I not only have to take care of the physical, but my mental, emotional, and spiritual well being. That means reaching out to others and getting out of Self.

MajestyJo · 11-26-2017, 10:28 PM

Just for today, I will turn my worries and frets over to my Higher Power. Never did get my laundry done. Hoping to get some good sound sleep so I feel rested when I wake up.

MajestyJo · 11-27-2017, 10:38 PM

Just for today, I will do the do things I need to do for my recovery. I phoned and made appointments, canceled appointments and booked new one to replace the one I forgot to book with Darts. I had to phone them twice, because I forgot to book ahead for my family doctor appointment next week. The first time I had to wait for 7 callers ahead of me and the second time, I had to wait for 5 callers. I put my phone on speaker and listened to their elevator music. It is too loud for one ear, best listened to with two.

MajestyJo · 11-28-2017, 06:10 AM

Just for today, I will organize my day so I can get everything done and make it to my meeting tonight. Don't want to tire myself by over extending myself. Tuesday's meeting is important to me. It was a big part of my early recovery. The Sunday meeting is important too, as it was the group I use to belong to before it moved. Like the name of both meetings, New Beginnings and Courage to Change. My NA home group is called The Journey Begins.
