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.
