Remember Mindfulness – sit comfortably

Just for today

The AA Just for Today card gives us the right
attitude for dealing with each day. It was written by
a non-alcoholic in the 1920’s well before AA was
conceived. Other fellowships such as NA, have
similar cards. They demonstrate the importance of
constant awareness that we carry within us the
potential for great joy or relapse and disaster. The
card reinforces the wisdom that today is the only
one that matters. For most of us, to live in the past
would mean to be a different person and to live in
the future is dying in slow motion. Will I remember
to live just for today because today is always today?

When your goal is spiritual growth and not a
specific point in time and place, then you know that
your journey will last for your lifetime. The words ‘A
Day at a Time’ then start to make more sense.
Progress, not perfection, is the way to view our life
in recovery. We will never receive a certificate of
success. It is enough to be living our lives along
spiritual principles. Today I ask God for the
perseverance to live my new life, a day at a time.
