Knowing myself
Asking for help when I need it and acting on my own when I don't Admitting when I'm wrong and making amends Accepting love from others, even if I'm having a tough time loving myself Recognizing that I always have choices, and taking responsibility for the ones I make Seeing that life is a blessing Having an opinion without insisting that others share it Forgiving myself and others Recognizing my shortcomings and my strengths Having the courage to live one day at a time Acknowledging that my needs are my responsibility Caring for people without having to take care of them. Accepting that I'll never be finished - I'll always be a work-in-progress. - Courage to Change (Al-Anon) Today's Reminder: Today I can spin a little silk and let it grace everything I touch. I don't have to look back to past ugliness except to learn from it, to enhance the present, and to release whatever beauty is trapped behind old secrets and self-defeating attitudes. One day at a time I can delight in the splendid person I am becoming. "Sometimes it is necessary to reteach a thing in loveliness...until it flowers again from within..." - Galway Kinnell originally posted on my site Soundness of Mind Do you know yourself? A good reason to do a Step Four.
