This little light of mine....I'm going to let it shine.......

Having a good day with your recovery program? Or are you having trouble staying focused?

Stay focused by one moment at a time and know that all will work out if you are patient with yourself........... Working your recovery program can seem tough and yet you have ways of getting little things done to keep moving forward.....

Be patient with yourself and know you are making progress......Keep smiling and get plenty of Hugs from others........Talk your problems out and listen to what others have to say...........There may be an answer to your own problems some place in all that is said in meetings................Work the steps daily and get some writing done to let feelings out............Work with your sponsor and know that others in the program are there for you to reach out to..........Call others in the program and talk to them and keep the Hugs going........You are doing ok.......Know that I am here for you as well.......I am sending you Hugs today and am praying for you as well.............Little Penguin

9-11 is almost upon us and this is a time to reflect on what has been put before us........When we think we have it tough each day ....look back 5 years ago when so many lost their lives for us and didn't know what hit them...........A time for a silent prayer is good at this time and tomarrow more prayers and silent times ............................Recovery is a time to think about all the times we thought we may have done wrong to others and damaged lives......For this we can change......for all those that died in 9-11 they can't change what happen .......their lives are lost now and no one can give them another chance....

You can make a difference ....you can change your life today and tomarrow..........reach out and tough another person........Give a Hug to the person next to you .......Let the tears drop from your face........YES it is ok to cry..........Know that there are people out there who still love you as I do today and tomarrow..................You are Special.......I love you all.........Little Penguin

Looking at the time move by and not getting much done? Lack of energy?
