Friday roll call

[teddiebears]

Made it through another week!

We're going to have off and on rain for the next 2-3 days. Maybe things will really start growing then!! It's been so dry here.

I have no exciting plans for the weekend. How about you??

Reading for today -

You are reading from the book Today's Gift

A person can grow only as much as his horizon allows.
--John Powell

Should you become a doctor or perhaps an astronaut? Maybe being a writer or an athlete appeals to you. Dreaming of what to be can be useful. It helps us set our goals and learn our values. Also, using our imagination lets us "try on" a future role. We learn about our life's direction through our dreams of where to go and what to do.

Not all dreams are helpful, however. Sometimes we daydream about other things when we really do need to listen. Learning how to use our imagination to guide our plans for growing up takes practice.

Imagining ourselves happy and brave will help us feel both. Imagining ourselves as failures can be just as powerful. Let's respect the power of the imagination and use it to form good images of our future.

How can I build goodness and success into my future today?

"Imagining ourselves happy and brave will help us feel both. Imagining ourselves as failures can be just as powerful. Let's respect the power of the imagination and use it to form good images of our future."

I've noticed that when I get caught up in my negative thoughts, sometimes bad things happen to me or around me. I really try to think of 'good' things happening, and often something good will happen.


Have a clean and sober weekend!!!
