I am reminded how I get to choose how I will live my life.
I have tried saying I will never do a behavior again and then I do it again.
I have learned that I am much better at stating my intentions for one day.
Today my intention is to enter each experience with compassion, empathy, kindness, understanding, peace, and love.
Today I intend on remaining sober and clean from any mood-altering substances. (I remember when I would say that every hour)
I have expanded this practice into every aspect of my life. Today I intend to eat healthy, drink water, exercise, make statements of appreciation, affirmations, and do meditation.
The pressure I created by saying never again has been released.
The ease of living has happened by living only in this moment.
I can do anything for one day and having that mindset I have created a life of inner balance, peace, serenity, kindness, and Love.
May each of you allow yourself the gift of living only in this moment.
You are Love and Loved.
