| The Serenity Prayer |
Tuesday, Dec. 30, 2014
Today's thought from the Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation is:
Being less than perfect
It was not a perfect year. But is there ever a perfect year? Being clean and sober does not purport or offer perfection. It gives us a chance to strive for progress. When we keep our Higher Power in our thoughts and actions, we come closer to perfection all the time.
Despite the disappointments of our complex lives, we are finally beginning to learn how to live. We are finally making progress.
Am I content to be less than perfect?
Higher Power, I pray that I may continue to strive for progress and be satisfied to be an imperfect human.
