    JANUARY 23rd Reflection for the Day

    We must never be blinded by the futile philosophy that we are just the hapless victims of our inheritance, of our life experience, and of our surroundings – that these are the sole forces that make our decisions for us. This is not the road to freedom. We have to believe that we can really choose. As addictive persons, we lost our ability to choose whether we would pursue our illness. Yet we finally did make choices that brought about our recovery.

    Do I believe that in “becoming willing” I have made the best of all choices?

    Today I Pray
    May I shed the idea that I am the world’s victim, an unfortunate creature caught in a web of circumstances inferring that others ought to “make it up to me” because I have been given a bad deal on this earth. We are always given choices. May God help me to chose wisely.

    Today I Will Remember
    God is not a puppeteer.

    • Gambling is definitely what I’ve been using to do this. I have been ripped off in the past. I’ve always had a feeling of getting ahead somehow especially when people have used me stolen from me.I have been ripped off in the past. I’ve always had a feeling of getting ahead somehow especially when people have use me stolen from me. I have felt like a victim for a very long time, even through successes the wrong thing to me I feel have put me way behind.. Hope I can find a way through this lesson. This one spoke to me the most thanks ken.
