BACK ON TRACK



Do you look back and remember
When your life was a living Hell?
When denial and deception reined,
Hopelessness was the outer shell?
Does that time in your life remain clear in your mind?
Reminders of powerlessness and fear that you find
to haunt you; to discourage you; to drive you insane?

Then search down inside yourself and see if you can find
That unique and special person who is hiding just behind
All the anger, guilt and resentment seething below
Or behind that many masks you allow the world to know.

An option is to take a risk and to set that person free
to take a step to freedom and let the whole world see
The genuine, honest person you are desperately trying to be
But the choices that must be made, are left to you indeed
If the goal that you have set is for recovery to succeed.

So get back down to basics; take it one day at a time
Remember easy does it; and Thy will be done not mine.
And if you have slipped and had a fall,
And you feel as is you have lost it all?
Remember that you are human,
Mistakes are often made
To continue on this rocky road will end up in the trade
Of a life filled with promises, serenity and care
For a life filled with devastation, depression and despair.

Now get back to down to basics; and get right back on track
Learn how to focus, and not just to react
And begin to forgive yourself, so you can bring you back
To the road of sobriety, with recovery intact.

- Lois Stargratt

A good woman is proud of herself. She respects herself and others.
She is aware of who she is. She neither seeks definition from the person she is with, nor does she expect them to read her mind. She is quite capable of articulating her needs.

A good woman is hopeful. She is strong enough to make all her dreams come true. She knows love, therefore she gives love. She recognizes that her love has great value and must be reciprocated. If her love is taken for granted, it soon disappears.

A good woman has a dash of inspiration, a dabble of endurance. She knows that she will, at times, have to inspire others to reach the potential God gave them.

A good woman knows her past, understands her present and moves toward the future.

A good woman knows God. She knows that with God the world is her playground, but without God she will just be played.

A good woman does not live in fear of the future because of her past.

Instead, she understands that her life experiences are merely lessons, meant to bring her closer to self knowledge and unconditional self love.

Back to you

Always act as if what you do will come back to you. Because in one way or another, it will.

Freely give your love, kindness, compassion, value and understanding to life. All those good things will grow in depth and magnitude, and then they will return to you.

You may think at times that no one is watching, and that no one cares one way or another what you do. Yet even when no one is watching, especially when no one is watching, you are making a difference in the world.

And as time goes on, the gifts you give to life become magnified. They spread far beyond you.

Eventually, they spread so far that they cannot help but come back to you. So be sure to start each influence on its journey in the best, most positive way.

Live each moment as if the words you speak, the thoughts you think, and the actions you undertake will come back to you. For they will surely do so, bigger than you could ever imagine.

-- Ralph Marston

It won't always come back from the same source. You will be blessed for giving, some say 10 fold, yet often when you add it up, there are too many ways and things to count.

The bees today say, "It is okay to be you." Know that all things are subject to change.
