Today’s Gift from Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation is:
I have a dream! — Martin Luther King Jr.
During our addiction, maybe we dreamed of joy and laughter with our family—only to find tears and anger. Maybe we dreamed of respect at our job—only to be fired. Our dreams began to feel like burdens. We had lost hope.
With recovery, the hope starts to return. We start to trust ourselves again. We start to trust others again. We start to trust in our Higher Power. Over time, we even dare to dream again. In our dreams, we are loving people. We have something to offer others. We are not scared. This is a sign that hope is returning. We fall in love again with the world, our Higher Power, and ourselves.
Prayer for the Day
Higher Power, thank You for giving back my future. Thank You for giving back my dreams.
Action for the Day
Today I’ll tell my dreams to a friend. Do my future dreams include improving myself through the program?
Hazelden Foundation
