right thing when no one is looking, is a manner of living i try and live up to, on a daily basis. all of my life in active addiction, every time i did the right thing, i desired recognition or a quid pro quo. all of my interactions with the world around me were transactional, and no matter how i slice or dice it, doing the next right thing was hardly ever just because it was the next right thing to do. sure, i could look saint-like at times and demon-like at others, but the unvarnished truth was that i was neither and both, all the time. my mind was always churning out what would be the most ideal outcome for me.
over the past few days, i have been shortchanging myself on exploring the topic of the day. oh, i can generate excuses but it comes down to the fact i had the desire to play with AI in the limited time i had to meet my new obligations. although it is hardly world-shaking or dire when it comes down to it, it is symptomatic of putting aside what is good for me, to scratch an itch, not all that unlike using and something i am going to need to surrender into the care of the POWER that fuels my recovery. my dive into AI, is on the verge of making my life unmanageable and i am t=starting to get the feeling that i am powerless when it comes to playing around with image generation.
this morning, this topic, was not quite what the reading was all about. i, however, find it close to my heart and do not really wish to go down into how and when i practice it. when i go down the path of speaking about specific instances, i feel that living that principle morphs from something pure to total conceit, and just for today, i want to live in the humility of walking softly through the good deeds and the next right things i do in my daily life.
