Today is
Toss Away the Should Haves and Could Haves Day, I don’t have a magical wand to take away our impulse to keep beating ourselves up, however, what I would like to suggest is the proven wisdom of moving forward with the help of the 12 Steps.
For example, July is the 7
th month, and looking at the 7
th Step, “Humbly asked Him to remove our shortcomings,” can help reinforce a healthy way to work at overcoming our past disappointments by starting fresh and looking at tomorrow.
It’s Saturday, it’s a weekend, please join me in taking this step forward. Together we can help each other forget deep regrets we cannot change, and work at awakening the beauty we have stored within. Then let’s head out and carry this message to others.
“No, dear brothers and sisters, I have not achieved it, but I focus on this one thing: Forgetting the past and looking forward to what lies ahead” (Philippians 3:13 NLT).
