Aug. 8, 2013 - Today's Gift from Hazelden

Thursday, Aug. 8, 2013
Today’s thought from Hazelden is:
Lost warriors have only to open their eyes to find the right and good path.
 – Chief Red Mountain
We all carry a fountain of joy inside. This joy is not something special given to only a few of us. An abundance of joy, happiness, and peace is our right. Our hearts were meant to be full of love and laughter.
We have been promised that our lives will get better. Even the worst situations will be made right. As we walk the path of recovery, our lives do get better. When we think we have reached our limit of joy and happiness, something else happens. We get happier! Life will not be without troubles, but joy and gratitude will heal all wounds and shine through all problems.
Today let me accept, without fear, the new joy I feel.
