The 12 Steps (Notes From Today's Meeting)

It is important for one in recovery from addiction, to go through the steps with a sponsor.
The beginning steps: focus on building relationship with G-d
The middle steps: focus on repairing relationship with self
The last steps: repairing, building relationship with others

Don't rush the process. Everyone at their own place. I'm still by step one.
For today I will post a few exercises on building a relationship with G-d.

1. Prayer: Daily. A long prayer, or a short one.

2. G-d to G-d: This is when you write a letter to G-d every night. At the end of the week, you write a letter back to yourself as if G-d is responding.

3. Appreciate: notice small events, such as the sunset or a squirrel, in daily life and realize they're gifts from G-d. Smile. murmur a thanks.

4. Paint/Draw: relax and sketch what you want but put a symbol in their for G-d, or dedicate painting/drawing to Him.

Remember G-d cares about you, saved your life. Nobody is put in this world to be an addict. We all have a mission. Let's stay focused on that goal.

Have a great day!
