LESSONS FROM OUR MISTAKES - 

"We grow through 

pain in recovery and 

often find that such a cri-

sis is a gift, an opportun-

ity to experience growth

by living clean." (The

Basic Text, p. 103)

THE GIFT OF BEING YOU -

"These legacies of suffering and of recovery are easily passed among [us], one to the other. This is our gift from God, and it is bestowed upon others like us all around the globe."  (12 & 12, p. 151)

"The most pre-

cious gift we can offer

others is our presence

When mindfulness em-

braces those we love,

they will bloom 

like flowers."

- Thich Nhat Hanh (1926 - ) Vietnamese Zen Buddhist monk

*HP - Higher Power - is any power greater than oneself, like Nature, the Cosmos, or even the legal system.

Zonr Suggestions:

Find a quiet place while you put aside all pre-judgments and open yourself up to the Universal Truths above that unite spiritual traditions from around the world. You may want to replace alcohol & drugs with your own struggles with smoking, food, sex, money, rage, work, or even love, in order to make each SFZ a closer, personal fit.

*For you and your HP (Higher Power)

To receive your own SFZs each day.
