    MARCH 15th Reflection for the Day

    There have been days during my recovery when just about everything seemed bleak and even hopeless. I allowed myself to become depressed and angry. I see now that it doesn’t matter what I think, and it doesn’t matter how I feel. It’s what I do that counts. So when I become anxious or upset, I try to stay in recovery by going to meetings, participating, and working with others in the Gamblers Anonymous Program.

    If God seems far away, who moved?

    Today I Pray
    May I not be immobilized by sadness or anger to the point of despair. May I look for the roots of despair in my tangle of emotions, sort out the tangle, pull out the culprit feelings, acknowledge that they belong to me. Only then can I get into gear, take action, begin to accomplish. May I learn to make use of the energy generated by anger to strengthen my will and achieve my goals.

    Today I Will Remember
    To sort out my feelings.

    • I feel like prayer and focusing on better my own self is what helps me as well. It is day by day but after awhile it replaces the urge to play
