And so, I Blog!!

Soooo, everybody is blogging except for Moi? Is this the newest form of writing? Are we headed towards the reality of the movie "Fahrenheit 451 "? What a tragedy that would be!! I have tried Twitter~for about 48 hours ,not for me at all! I do Facebook, but also find it to be truly surfacy and a bit of a waste of my time. I like to write, not twit or mindlessly comment. So, I guess I will. :) Here I will share on the most precious thing in my life, my recovery and my spiritual journey. If my only audience is that of the ether, that will be good enough ... for I write not to be read, but because I am called to write!!! And so, I blog!!
I will begin with the daily readings from the book:
A Grateful Heart ~ 365 ways to give thanks at mealtime edited by MJ Ryan
The Winter Prayers began on the first day of winter ~ so I am begining there. The winter prayers begin with this thought:
A thankful soul is thankful under all circumstances, a complaining soul complains even if he lives in paradise. -BAHA'U'LLAH
Please join me in thought-provoking conversaton! Namaste' Cate

LET US GIVE THANKS

Let us give thanks
for the food we are about to eat.
May there be food for all,
abundant and healthful.
Let us have the wisdom to choose to eat only that
which enhances precious energy
and sustains us through our labors an rest.
- adapted from AN HAGGADAH OF LIBERATION


It is my experience that I give thanks and use moderation
best regarding my body when I am fully focused on nurturing 
and caring for my soul!!  It took me many years to realize that
i can not feed my soul through my body ... and that my soul 
is the most important part of my Being and call for care.
When I take good care of my soul first, I can take good care of
all of me, and I can be there for others.
Like the lovely AA slogan ...
First Things First!
So simple
So true
Thank You!!
