Higher Power?- Hope it's God and not you.

Today's thought is:
"My formula for living is quite simple. I get up in
the morning and I go to bed at night. In between I
occupy myself as best I can."
--Cary Grant

We need balance in our life. Both quiet times for
introspection and meaningful activities that take us
outside of ourselves enhance our emotional and
spiritual well-being.

Too much self-absorption and too little attention to
other people can impoverish us emotionally.
Likewise, always seeking distractions and having to
constantly be in the thick of things can cut us off
from our deeper spiritual resources.

The least stressful and most productive plan for our
daily recovery is to strive for moderation in all our
activities and simplicity in our self-analysis. Our
inner wisdom will guide us when we acknowledge
the direction from our Higher Power that emerges in
the quiet places of our mind. Then we can give our
attention to other people and better acknowledge,
praise, and love them.

I will find time for both quiet meditation and
involvement with others today.

James,
I don't know if you realize this or not, but the AA writings that you been posting are almost identical in nature to a lot of New Age thought processes. Probably many here will take that as a condemnation of the writings, but that is not how it should be taken. In fact, I think that it shows that many forms of spirituality are very similar at many levels. More similar than many here would care to admit.
