I have a bookmark titled "JUST FOR TODAY", and one of the paragraphs on this book mark reads as follows:
"Just for today I will try to live through this day only, and not tackle all my problems at once. I can do something for 12 hours that would appall me if I felt that I had to keep it up for a lifetime." There are many other sayings on that book mark, but just for today I will focus on that one part.
At a meeting recently, I was asked to do the reading "Information for the newcomer". I got to the part where it says "your job is to be here...that is all, just be here" and I got choked up. It was overwhelming the thought that all anyone needed of me was to 'just be there' or that being there was a job anyone wanted from me. I love that part of the readings very much.
Today I ask my higher power to be here, just be here, in my heart and my life.
