Today’s Gift from Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation is:
Being different
Some of us feel so different that we think no person or group could help us or even understand us. We feel alone and isolated. Whatever these differences are, they can be lessened by concentrating on the purpose common to us all—we are learning to live a life free of alcohol or other drugs by connecting with a power greater than ourselves.
Our Higher Power does not want us to be alone. We are all more alike than different. We must recognize the love that is available to us. Are we looking for what we have in common, or are we looking for ways to be alone and different?
Do I realize that our common purpose can outweigh all differences?
Higher Power, help me feel connected by looking for what I share with my fellow members.
Today I will overlook all differences or look for what we share in…
