Meditation of the week
Together we can do it - we can recover. Disorders are habits of loneliness and isolation. To get well we need help, and that help is always available.
Those of us who belong to a Twelve Step support group have a list of phone numbers. We know we can call people who will be there for us. We go to meetings and share. We find that other people have similar problems, and we stop feeling lonely and isolated.
Some of us are in therapy, some of us have strong family support systems, and some of us have friends and colleagues we can talk to when the going gets rough.
We can get help through our spiritual center. We may define it in various ways, but when we become aware of this center, we have an ever-present source of support.
I will spend some quiet time today paying attention to the help that comes from my spiritual center.

Poem of the Week
The bee is not afraid of me
The bee is not afraid of
me,
I know the butterfly;
The pretty people in the woods
Receive me cordially.
The brooks laugh louder when I come,
The breezes madder play.
Wherefore, mine eyes, thy silver mists?
Wherefore, O summer's day?
I know the butterfly;
The pretty people in the woods
Receive me cordially.
The brooks laugh louder when I come,
The breezes madder play.
Wherefore, mine eyes, thy silver mists?
Wherefore, O summer's day?
