The post celebrates the dawn of a spiritual awakening. It Works, How & Why describes light breaking through denial. Surrender allows this ray of truth to enter our lives. We leave behind the cold darkness of our old ways. This transition requires a connection to a Great Spirit. Meditation acts as a vital step into the sun. As Bill Sees It confirms that growth needs this warmth.

Barack Obama spoke of moral forces bending the arc of history (Obama, 2011). This dignity resonates within our personal recovery journeys. Similarly, Maya Angelou reminded us that every morning offers new possibilities (Angelou, 1993). She suggested that a brave day begins with our internal light. Wellbriety wisdom supports this daily renewal of the soul. “Each morning offers a gift from the Higher Power” (White Bison, 2002, p. 15). Consequently, we seek guidance to walk a straight path. This spiritual discipline anchors our newfound freedom.

EL AMANECER DE UN MUNDO COMPLETAMENTE NUEVO ILUMINA NUESTRO CAMINO UNA VEZ MÁS – PASO 11

QUE CADA DÍA DESPIERTE MÁS VERDAD –

“Antes de admitir la verdad sobre nuestra adicción [o fallas], conocíamos solo la oscuridad de la negación. Pero cuando nos rendimos… un rayo de luz atravesó la oscuridad, comenzando nuestro despertar espiritual.” (Funciona: cómo y por qué, p. 82)

PASANDO A LA LUZ –

“Pero sobre todo querremos la luz del sol, nada puede crecer mucho en la oscuridad. La meditación es nuestro paso hacia el sol.” (Como lo ve Bill, p. 10)

FRAGMENTO DE OBAMA –

“Y sobre todo, vimos surgir una nueva generación… Este es el poder de la dignidad humana, y nunca se puede negar. Porque en Egipto, fue la fuerza moral de la no violencia… [una] fuerza moral que inclinó el arco de la historia hacia la justicia una vez más.”

Presidente Barack Obama (1961 – ), 44º presidente de los EE. UU. sobre la liberación en la Plaza Tahrir (11/02/2011)


Análisis

El análisis celebra el amanecer de un despertar espiritual. Funciona: cómo y por qué describe la luz atravesando la negación. La rendición permite que este rayo de verdad entre en nuestras vidas. Dejamos atrás la fría oscuridad de nuestros viejos caminos. Esta transición requiere una conexión con el Gran Espíritu. La meditación actúa como un paso vital hacia el sol. Como lo ve Bill confirma que el crecimiento necesita este calor.

Barack Obama habló de fuerzas morales que inclinan el arco de la historia (Obama, 2011). Esta dignidad resuena dentro de nuestros viajes personales de recuperación. Del mismo modo, Maya Angelou nos recordó que cada mañana ofrece nuevas posibilidades (Angelou, 1993). Ella sugirió que un día valiente comienza con nuestra luz interna. La sabiduría de Wellbriety apoya esta renovación diaria del alma. “Cada mañana ofrece un regalo del Poder Superior” (White Bison, 2002, p. 15). Por consiguiente, buscamos guía para caminar por un sendero recto. Esta disciplina espiritual ancla nuestra recién descubierta libertad.

    i see providing the space for people to be feel free to be the best selves is what guides me lately.

    I often find that I achieve my “Ah-Ha” moments when I take the time to sit back and become re-acquainted with myself.

    Sometimes I fear that the pain in our hearts will not allow us to witness the light of day. We need more and more guns; more and more money; more and more status and prestige. “…lest problems of money, property and prestige divert us from our primary spiritual aim.” (Al-Anon 12 Traditions). Everything I accumulate is in an effort to quiet my own pain – as I run from me, I will never be fast enough. Namaste.

    I would say that what really lights my path today and gets me fired up in the morning today is my nonprofit work that promotes human dignity and spiritual freedom.

    I was at a meeting recently with one of the groups for marriage equality and they described how it came to pass for two separate marches recently instead of unified one. And it occurred to me that we see our own faults clearly. If we want the world to see we are ready for marriage then the lessons of forgiveness and tolerance must first be learned within.

    I went to (did?) two meetings and a panel yesterday. At the first meeting a young woman shared that she was there for a psychology class, but had heard so much that sounded like her own life, she began to cry as she shared. She said, “I will come back next week – and it won’t be for a class.” I don’t know how Higher Power delivers each of us to where we are supposed to be, but our journeys seem to converge at a place of awakening where we can choose to rejoice in this new day..or we can choose to go back to sleep.
