JUNE 20 REFLECTION FOR THE DAY "Honest selectivity"
from A Day at a Time Reflections Hosted by James H
When we take the Ninth Step, we must be willing to be absolutely honest. Obviously, though, indiscriminate "absolute honesty" would blow the roof off many a house and entirely destroy some relationships. We must hold nothing back through deceit and pride; we may need to hold something back through discretion and consideration for others. Just when and how we tell the truth-or keep silent-can often reveal the difference between genuine integrity and none at all. Am I grateful for the products of truth, which, through the grace of God, I have been privileged to receive? Today I Pray … May I have the wisdom to know the fine line difference between tact and dishonesty. In my eagerness to make restitution, may I not be the charmer, the flatterer, or the crawler who insists, "You're so good, and I'm so bad." All are forms of dishonesty and hark back to the role-playing days of my active gambling addiction. May I recognize them. Today I Will Remember … Tact is honest selectivity.
