โ†” writing about it... โ†”

... well i really do not know what is going on with me this morning, i am restless, and discontented. it just may be a reaction from being away at convention and then having to jump into a family social situation in a matter of hours. or it may be that i wrote my step writing assignment last night and still feel as if there is more that needs to be written. or it could just be that i am feeling a bit out of sorts today. whatever it is, i will move forward through my day and do what is expected of me. i also will take a moment before responding to anything, you know that silly pause before reacting thing that has saved my ass more than once.
the reading did provide some material for me to cogitate on and did remind me that it has been more than a few days since i sat down and talked to my sponsor. i do know that i need to speak with him before i share openly at a meeting. i also know that i can trust this process and do what is in front of me and right now that is doing the job i am paid for.

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 1

1) The highest excellence is like (that of) water. The excellence
of water appears in its benefiting all things, and in its occupying,
without striving (to the contrary), the low place which all men dislike.
Hence (its way) is near to (that of) the Tao.
