There is no need to run outside
For better seeing,
Nor to peer from a window.
Rather abide at the center of your being.

Lao Tzu

I always looked for answers outside of
myself. I did not put the trust in my
self and thought someone, anyone, always
knew better than me. I believed the
advertisements and compared myself to
polished pictures of beautiful thin
women.

As I recover from compulsive overeating,
I am learning that all of the answers
are inside of me. I need only to get
quiet and listen to that still small
voice. I pray that my Higher Power will
give me the willingness to go inside
where my truths lie.

ONE DAY AT A TIME . . .

I look within and wait patiently ...
knowing the answers, however big or small, are all within.
