Respecting the Gift of My Life
We
do not receive wisdom, we must discover it for ourselves, after a
journey through the wilderness which no one else can make for us, which
no one can spare us, for our wisdom is the point of view from which we
come at last to regard the world.-Marcel Proust
I will sustain and respect the life I have been given
God
has given ME to ME to look after. No one is with me twenty four seven;
if I want to be help-able, it has to begin with me. I am my own
responsibility. If I don't care for me, if I don't hold me up, if I
don't sustain and nurture myself, there will be no way for another
person to be able to do that for me. Today I will take care of the gift
of ME, knowing that this is my right and responsibility. I will get the
rest, nutrition, exercise, and companionship that I need to feel good. I
will find something constructive to occupy my time. I will be aware of
my mood and my attitude, and I will do my best to keep them heading in a
positive rather than a negative direction. I am responsible for seeing
to it that I am well cared for; if I do not take care of ME, no one else
will, no one else can.
