This morning’s meditation.
That’s not the problem.
I am reminded this morning that all things are possible when we are aligned with the Birther of the cosmos, that which breathes life into all creation.
I am fortunate to have lived sober for many years and the alcohol was not the problem.
Not drinking was never the issue.
The belief that drinking again, regardless of the consequences from the last drunk, was normal was the problem.
This belief system that I can again participate in behaviors which brought me so much discomfort was the problem.
Believing that cheating on my first wife would be fine as long as no one ever found out was the problem.
Believing that I could charm my way through life was the problem.
Interestingly, finally experiencing so much dis-ease from these beliefs I was brought to a point of willingness to learn.
So, I apparently needed to go through all those experiences in order to desire something else. Peace.
Today I choose to enter each experience with compassion, acceptance, appreciation, kindness, honesty, humor, humility, peace, and Love.
Today I take the time for prayer and meditation to get into alignment with God.
Today I get to experience each feeling and emotion with appreciation and understanding.
Today I am free.
May each of you find your way to align with God.
You are Loved.
