Just for today, I will practice my patience and learn to tolerate the things in my life. I have to remember it isn't about the other person, it is all about me and my attitude.

Just for today, I must work on my acceptance. My Fibromyalgia had come out of remission and making itself known. I have to accept that I typed this out and somehow, I closed all my windows that I had open, and my server too and have to do this twice.

Just for today, I will pray for the good orderly direction I need for my relationships with my immediate family, my recovery family, and my internet family. I pray that I be given the words I need and be give the wisdom to know the difference and not interfere when it is in their best interest to find the way for themselves.

Just for today, I will put my company manner's on as my son's says. Being with family and in-laws, can be trying, if you don't have the right attitude.

I don't know if it was ego or pride that made me feel good to dress up and feel good within myself. If I didn't pay attention to my aching feet, I had a good time. My shoes were the first thing off when I got home. What do they say, "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder." Unfortunately, when I look in the mirror, I don't see a lot of beauty, even after all these years. So grateful it is a program of practice, practice, practice.

Like this, they say we are suppose to become our own best friend.

Just for today, I will try to be patient. I don't know when I will get a call from Home Care to talk to me about whether I qualify for a subsidy to get a chair or scooter. If all goes through it can be 6-8 weeks before I get the chair. I have waited this long, I can wait a little longer.

Just for today, I will not take my pain out on other people. My sister said, "If you want I'll have a pity party for you." I said, "I don't want a pity party. I just want you to pray that I will be able to get out of bed in the morning. I want to be able to go to my home group, whether I fell today or not.

Just for today, I will work my program to the best of my ability. I will try to remember that it is a day at a time and this too shall pass. Some things do not turn out the way we 'expect' them to be, and we have to accept our limitations.

Just for today, I will forgive, that which was done to me, knowing the person was acting out in his disease. I was very angry, and don't you know it, when you go to a meeting, you hear what you need to do. A normal thing for an addict is to act out inn his disease. End of story, why should I think any less. He is not responsible for his disease, but he is responsible for his actions in his disease.

At least that is what I think it said, which ever way I look at it, I need to be caring and loving, and forgive the person, even though the actions were unacceptable.

Just for today, I will practice patience and tolerance, of myself and others. I want to go back to bed and I really need to sit and read my book. Sometimes we just have to do things even though we don't want to. I enjoy reading, not sure why I can't get through this book by my favorite author, Lee Child.

Just for today, I will accept what is in the moment, knowing it is subject to change. I was spoiled for a short period of time and my feet were not swollen. The last couple of days have been bad and I have to cut my computer time down, because my feet are swollen before I sit at the computer. The feet must go up, which for some reason, is hard for me.

Just for today, I will try to follow my God's Will for my life. I will not refute His Word or ignore His Good Orderly Direction in today.

Just for today, I will give thanks. Each day is a blessing if I just accept it for what it is. Not always easy to do, but better than butting our heads against the wall.
