I am not grateful that I allowed myself to think that an “outside supposedly influences” were supposed to be there to manage my addictions. No, I am not grateful. I’ve been re-reading my journalizing from 10 years past…some of these addictions are still with me. Am I still fooling myself as I go to my Abe workshops each day with expectations of success?
I am grateful for an electric mattress pad that I leave plugged in over the year, and when I got cold enough last night, I reached for the control and turned that wonderful sucker on for comfort in the coolness of night.
I am grateful for the silence in my life style. This silence seems to bring me in tune with Universal love.
I am grateful for ACIM and to be sticking with lesson #79 in my Abe workshop plus the other 2 “wants”…if and when I find all this is/was unnecessary, too, I’ll also meet this with Compassion. I am grateful for the awareness of and expressing of Compassion for others and for me. Perhaps this is like Julie Cameron’s, in "Artists Way," 3 page “morning pages”…when I wrote until something started to happen with my emotions in the last 1/3 of the 3rd page.
Me? I am grateful for this web.site and the expected hope and fulfillment as I join the world for the day’s events. For the “Nowness of living;” for the Holy Instants that let me know my mind is part of God’s; and that I silently feel God’s Presence prevailing that occur with my mind as I change a perception on this vertical path aligning with Universal love and harmony…rell
