many gifts.
this could be a gratitude list or a whining session, but instead i will just write what is on my mind today.
i get to choose to stay clean today.
i get to choose whether i grow spiritually or back slide into active addiction.
i get to choose to get up and face the day or hide and isolate.
for me that is the substance of this promise, everything else i get is just that, everything else.
so this morning i celebrate the fact that just for today i am free from active addiction

Tao Te Ching

☯ The Tao that can be spoken is not the eternal Tao ☯

The Tao Teh King, or The Tao and Its Characteristics
by Lao-Tse
Translated by James Legge

Book 2

1) May not the Way (or Tao) of Heaven be compared to the (method of)
bending a bow? The (part of the bow) which was high is brought low,
and what was low is raised up. (So Heaven) diminishes where there
is superabundance, and supplements where there is deficiency.
