I can only live one hour at a time. This hour. All I have to do is to live this hour well and let the rest take care of itself. All I have to do is not self medicate, act out or sink into despair or emotional drunkenness this one day. I can do, a day at a time, what might frighten or overwhelm me if I thought I had to it all at once. There is such a thing as time. Life unfolds in moments and hours. Today surrounds me. Everything is alive and so am I. A God of my understanding is alive in this moment and I am being held by this Higher Power whether I know it or not. Today I am alive and I know it.

 I change the world by changing me

Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.

Margaret Mead

US anthropologist  (1901 – 1978)
