LOVE this little idea that came in via Hazelden's daily "Gift for Today" emails recently...

"We always think before we act, 

even if the thinking has become automatic."

Wow. So simple and rings so true to me... Those of us with 'addiction' backgrounds (which, from my perspective, actually seems to include the majority of people in 'Western' cultures, in some way or another...) might be able to identify with this pattern...

Acting out on addictions (alcohol, food, shopping, cigarettes, gambling etc) may become so automatic that we stop even NOTICING the thought prior to the action...the pattern has been played out so many times that we don't even witness the thought process, yet it IS there...and it may offer even a split-second of GRACE, during which we can choose to not act out the pattern once again, if that is what we truly want...
I hope that this little quote-ette helps to offer extra hope to anyone dealing with current active addictions, or for those who love someone caught in this flow...may we all acknowledge how self-destructive and abusive these addiction patterns usually are and how much they indicate low self-love...there are SO many other ways to help fill that gap within than with a cigarette, chunk of chocolate cake or glass of wine...you ARE loveable, loving and loved :)))

All love,
