There is beauty where you are. Do you see it?
There is beauty in your soul. Can you feel it?
There is beauty in the person standing next to you. Are you able to appreciate it?
There is beauty in places where you have never noticed it before. Uncover that hidden beauty, and you'll discover a whole new level of joyfulness in life. ~Ralph Marston

Today I am grateful...
- to be surrounded by books, art supplies and music. What luxuries!
- for a loving sponsor that always lifts everyone's spirits
- for friends that love me and protect my sobriety
- for a little black and white companion with a Betty Boop head
- to live in the grace of a Higher Power
Our defects are like the bars of a cage. The central point is not to study the bars, but get out of the cage. ~Anonymous
God, help me be so clear on who I am that I can generously afford to let other people be who they are, too. Help me to set aside my defensive behavior, and teach me to blend with other people and see their point of view while not relinquishing my own. ~Melody Beattie
