August 12

REFLECTION FOR TODAY

The road to self-acceptance is long and often full of pain. When we feel rejected or misunderstood, it hurts and often tempts us to question the value of our needs and feelings. The twelve-step program gives us the tools we need to know and accept ourselves. Although self-acceptance cannot be obtained quickly or easily, once we give ourselves completely to this simple program, we start on the path toward valuing ourselves. All lasting happiness is dependent on a healthy love and acceptance of myself.

MEDITATION FOR TODAY

Let me not be detoured or discouraged by the pain involved in growing.

TODAY I WILL REMEMBER

I cannot be right for anyone unless I am right for myself.
