New Post on The Official Blog of The Way Out Podcast! Today's Gift - 8/16/2016

Today's thought from the Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation is:Go and wake up your luck.-- Persian proverbWe've been given recovery. For this, we're lucky. And we're grateful. Now it's up to us. We must accept our choices. When we're afraid, do we choose to be alone? Or do we choose to go to an extra meeting? When we're not honest, do we keep it secret? Or do we admit it and try to be more honest? No matter what we choose, we're responsible for that choice. Through choices, we either make our program strong or weak. We can choose to be lucky. Or we can choose not to be. The choice is ours. Our addiction robbed us of choice. It taught us to blame others. Now we see ourselves as responsible.Prayer for the DayHigher Power, help me to choose wisely. Help me remember I'm responsible for my choices.Today's ActionToday I'll work at being responsible for my choices. I'll see myself as one of the lucky ones.
