Today's Gift from Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation is:
In less than one year, 98 percent of all the atoms in your body are replaced completely. This includes even the DNA, which holds memories of millions of years of evolutionary time ...
You are literally changing your body as effortlessly as you change your clothes.
-- Deepak Chopra
Perhaps we have given up on changing certain aspects of our lives. We may say to ourselves, "This is something I can't change." But when we look back at our old ideas and behaviors, we can see how we have changed. We can see how often change has occurred even without our conscious effort. Change is constant and inevitable in our lives at every level - physical, mental, and spiritual.
Willpower doesn't bring about change, willingness does. With willingness and trust in a Higher Power, we can replace old habits with new ones, just as our bodies replace their atoms.
Today, I am willing to change my life for the better.
Hazelden Foundation
