Thanks Amy, I really like that reading...I have a couple of readings I want to share too.

Here's one of them for now:

Today's thought from Hazelden is:

There are no perfect days. We have struggled hard against this truth. In our demanding ways, we haven't wanted life to be a process; we have wanted to reach a secure point of arrival. We have struggled against the dialogue and learning process of experience. We've looked for a "fix it" and for perfection. Even now in recovery we long to "get it right" We continue to learn and to grow, but the lessons we learn are not the things we expected. We grieve the lateness of our learning. and then we go on to learn more.

As we grow in this program, we learn how to learn. We become more accepting of life as a process with no shortcut to the truth. We learn to engage inthe process and accept that there usually is no right or wrong answer at the end of the search.

Today, may I accept the truth, which comes from the lessons of my experience--and be tolerant of its incompleteness.
