Sept. 15, 2022 - Readings in Recovery: Today's Gift from Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation

Today’s Gift from Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation is:

All the poems of our lives are not yet made. — Muriel Rukeyser

We can point to signs of progress in the evolution of our healing and maturing. We have taken steps in developing our relationships with ourselves, other people, and Spirit. We have begun to accept and forgive ourselves and others. We have welcomed fresh ideas about our identities and possibilities for growth. Whether gradually or suddenly, we have let in new attitudes and begun to cultivate new habits. New selves are continuously evolving out of the old as we become free of what is no longer true for us.

Conscious awareness of how much we have changed over time can give us hope for our future. We can look forward expectantly for more good to enter our lives. We can make worthy commitments, so that we ourselves have a hand in gently guiding our transformation into the people we wish to become.

Today, I commit myself to healing transformation.
