My thought for today is Selfishness. Selfishness is the quality of caring only for your own welfare, advantage, or interests, especially at the expense of others. When I drank, I would show up at a party with a six-pack so you would see I brought liquor, then I'd drink all your booze, start fights, break furniture, flirt with your woman if you were too drunk to notice, and then tell you about it the next day. I did not care about you or anyone else at the party except for me and how drunk I could get. I was like that with everything. Now that I'm sober, things are different. I usually wake up at 8 o'clock, but I'm going to a birthday meeting this morning and that's at 10, so I woke up at 7. Now, I have enough time to do my morning stuff which includes prayer, meditation, and reflection. I also wanted to bake cookies for the party. I'm pretty sure that's not selfish.
