Sept. 18, 2018 - Readings in Recovery: Today's Gift from Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation

Tuesday, Sept. 18, 2018
Today’s thought from the Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation is:

Two persons love in one another the future good which they aid one another to unfold.
 — Margaret Fuller

We can see the potential for growth in friends we love, a reality that often lies hidden to them. Through our encouragement and our commitment to them, we can help them tackle the barriers to success. Likewise, we’ll be helped. It’s within the plan, ours and theirs, that we’re traveling this road together.

For moments in time, we’re matched pairs, drawing from each other the talents the world awaits, while alone we sometimes withdraw, thus depriving the world of what we have to offer. The expression of love will push forward the development of the whole human race.

No one of us is without someone to love if we’d but choose to offer ourselves to another.
