Beauty

Beauty as we feel it is something indescribable; what it is or what it means can never be said.

~George Santayana

Beauty is among our most useful and most used words as we progress toward spiritual goals. The kind of beauty that guides our thinking in recovery does not lie on the outside, but rises from within. When we learn to see that beauty in the words, actions, and attitudes of others as well as in the principles we follow, we are choosing well. Our friends have beauty because of who they really are, not what they may appear to be. The emotions we feel and the living guides we follow are beautiful simply because we need them.

I will have no trouble finding spiritual beauty in our program. True beauty never dies. It is found in all thoughts, attitudes, and emotions, if only I seek it.

Today's reading is from the book Easy Does It: A Book of Daily Twelve Step Meditations*
