Father Leo’s Daily Meditation #essentialsofrecovery

BELONGING


“But one day when I was sitting quiet and feeling like a motherless child, which I was, it came to me that feeling of being part of everything, not separate at all. I knew that if I cut a tree, my arm would bleed.”

— Alice Walker

Today I am aware of the truth that I belong. I am an essential part of God’s world. I share divinity because God made me. Today I choose to seek that spiritual center in me that is forever positive and creative. Today I am the center of my universe.

Past hurts and wrongs cannot take away the uniqueness in my life. Past abuses and painful put-downs, my years of alternating between the lost child and the scapegoat in my family need not make me a victim today. Today I am free to choose recovery and an acceptance of self. Today I choose to associate with the winners of this world. Today I participate in creation by being a creative person for me. Yesterday’s pain need not have any power in my life today.

When I kneel before the stream, mountains and stars, I feel me.
