Thought for today:
Acceptance is the fifth and last stage of the “five stages of grief*”. Having gone through denial, anger, bargaining and depression over our debts, it is a welcome relief to be able to see a blue sky again!
A member shares:
“When I accept myself as I am, and accept my net worth as whatever it is, I become comfortable in my skin and grounded in love. Problems seem to lose their dominance, replaced with an atmosphere of peace with glimpses of loving kindness and generosity.
“I have a long way to go, but I know that I am not alone. The love of the fellowship has given me a new ability to love myself!”
Ask:
Am I doing something loving for myself today?
Meditation for today:
It is a paradox that self-love brings out love in others. When we are comfortable being who we are in any moment – that is to say human, with frailties – we begin to allow others to experience relief from pretense and competition.
Affirmation for today:
“I accept who I am.”
