Remember Mindfulness – relax your whole body gradually

Love

Give your hearts, but not into each other’s keeping. For only the hand of life can contain your hearts.
And stand together yet not too near together. For the
pillars of the temple stand apart, And the oak tree and
the cypress grow not in each other’s shadow.
Kahlil Gibran.

Love, says Gibran, is about nurturing one another without being codependent. As we grow spiritually, we also grow in self-reliance. The selflessness of real love is at odds with the obsessive desire that romantic love produces. Love is a strong emotion and the newly sober are encouraged to attend to other aspects of their recovery first. There is of course another form of love – that of one’s fellow human beings who deserve all the love we can give in their struggle in sobriety. Can I extend the hand of love to my fellow humans who are addicted?

When you love you should not say, ‘God is in my heart’
but rather, ‘I am in the heart of God.’
Kahlil Gibran.
If I am in love, I know I am alive. Today I give thanks that I can experience love.
