EQUALITY
“Treat all men alike. Give them all the same laws. Give them all an even chance to live and grow.”— Chief Joseph
Today it is important for me to remember that I am not the only human being in this universe; I need to respect and be considerate of others. Spirituality requires that I treat all people with dignity and respect because they carry something of God within them — the image of God is with all men. In this way I show and give respect to self.
As an alcoholic I was selfish and demanding, wanting my way all the time. Sobriety teaches me that “the way” must include others; my fellow men are part of my life and journey. I cannot live in isolation and be sober.
O Spirit of the World, teach me to respect all men as a service to myself.
