Just for Today

[nina]

Thanks for your thoughts on Today. I am not a musician but have composed a Today ditty that is meant to go to a wrap beat. Anyway it helps me to recall the message and may help someone else.
Hey! Hey! Just for today
You can be happy the AA (12 step...) way.
Adjust to what is-avoid a tizz
Mind what you think, never a drink.
Read, learn and ponder as you go yonder.
Remember your soul-an ongoing goal,
Do good discretely
Do two tasks meekly
Learn to detach-life isn't a match.
Being agreeable becomes achievable,
Make your own program
Do it today
You can be happy the AA way.
Enjoy some quiet-it's part of the diet
Dare never fear, God's always near.
Let it go, out you go.
Step up to the plate, give help to a mate
Forget the fight, look to the light.

Happily today I am sober and have had time to work with Meditations for the Twelve Steps- A Spiritual Journey and the associated workbook and references in the Life Recovery Bible. I have found these very helpful.
Yours in recovery
Nina
