Oils were my first artistic love.
Today I am grateful to see myself as an unfinished canvas, (to me a better euphemism than a work in progress) because this visual reminds me I am constantly adding and blending the colors of my spirit.
My soul has plenty of canvas to fill because the canvas that is me is larger than any I have ever imagined.
I once saw myself as a postage sized dark red, fully completed picture. With G-d, my palette is never empty, my strokes are always sure, my pleasure with my work increases the moment the scent of oils and turpentine mingle in my nose.
Today I choose to work on me because I know it is my best option-because I am willing, worthy and loving. Because with G-d I want to feel more of this.
Today recovery is first and foremost in my life- it is the brushes to paint my picture, it is the mainstay of my life.
Today I am grateful for the full circle meaning that "it works if you work it" means to me.
Today I am grateful to wake up and ask, "G-d, are you there?"
And to ALWAYS get the answer I need: "Yes. I am always here. As long as you ask."
I am grateful I am no longer alone, grateful to know that G-d has ALWAYS been with me. Because of Him I made it to here. Because of Him I will have today.
Today I wish you all the peace of this program that is yours for the asking. Today I am grateful you are willing.
