Recovery Meditations ~ Goodness ~ One Day at a Time ~ April 30, 2011

~ GOODNESS ~


:~*~:. .:~*~:. .:~*~:. .:~*~:. .:~*~:. .:~*~:

Above all, let us never forget that an

act of goodness is in itself an act of

happiness.


Count Maurice Maeterlinck

:~*~:. .:~*~:. .:~*~:. .:~*~:. .:~*~:. .:~*~:

While in the disease, most of the

goodness I tried to do was for ulterior

motives. It was only in recovery that I

learned to give unselfishly and without

strings to help another. In doing so, I

have found happiness beyond measure. I

can create my own happiness in the

service of my Higher Power and other

compulsive overeaters. I can make the

promise of a "new happiness and a new

freedom" come true.



ONE DAY AT A TIME . . .


I will do acts of goodness.
