choosing peace...

i live about a mile away from where i am working; i was blessed with a beautiful day in which to walk it. i awoke this morning with my mind racing...that insanity i so often refer to, so after turning my will and my life over to the care of my higher power, i did some readings i always do, and began my journey. the walk helped to get my spirit right with the ALL that i believe is ALL...birds were chirping; the sun was on my face, and the sky was so blue...partially filled with puffy clouds, and the breeze was on my face. first a yellow butterfly accompanied me along my way, and then a white one. found myself thinking about the fact that they only live 7 days of our time...it seemed the birds were speaking to me...and escorting me along the way. needless to say i felt such peace...what a way to begin my day. work was busy...but not extremely so, and afterwards i walked a little further up the road to attend a very spiritual meeting that i have made my home group...begin the journey. everything was so positive...it is a candlelight meeting and a little different than the typical meetings that one may attend. i am blessed with many things today...but far and above them all, i have inner peace. it is a choice...if not for sobriety, i would not have this choice, or these wonderful experiences...

justfortoday...star.
