A Day at a Time
Never
doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change
the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.-Margaret Mead,
American anthropologist (1901-1978)
I change the world by changing me
I
can only live one hour at a time. This hour. All I have to do is to
live this hour well and let the rest take care of itself. All I have to
do is not self medicate, act out, or sink into despair or emotional
drunkenness this one day. I can do, a day at a time, what might frighten
or overwhelm me if I thought I had to it for the rest of my life. I
will live the life I want to have today, knowing that this is my best
assurance of a good tomorrow. There is such a thing as time. Life
unfolds in moments and hours. Today surrounds me. Everything is alive
and so am I. A God of my understanding is alive in this moment and I am
being held by this Higher Power whether I know it or not. Today I am
alive and I know it.
