Feel the Blessings of Today

April 5 -- Reflection of the Day: Still another common thread we invariable see among slippers is that many of them felt dissatisfaction with today. "I forgot we live one day at a time,: or "I began to anticipate the future," or " I began to plan results, not just plan. They seemed to forget that all we have in NOW. Life continued to get better for them and, as many of us do, they forgot how bad it had been. They began to think, instead, of how dissatisfying it was compared to what it could be.

Do I compare today with yesterday, realizing, by that contrast, what great benefits and blessing I have today?

Today I Pray: If I am discouraged with today, may I remember the sorrows and hassles of yesterday. If I am impatient for the future, let me appreciate today and how much better it is than the life I left behind. May I never forget the principle of "one day at a time."

Today I Will Remember: The craziness of yesterday

  1. As time passes I work hard not to forget the sorrows and hassles gambling brought into my life. Things diminish with time, but I know it's crucial to never forget the pain of the past.
