A
positive
self
image
is
critical
to
our
recovery.
Why?
Because
it
is
the
glasses
through
which
we
look,
the
gloves
with
which
we
touch,
the
door
by
which
we
enter
into
a
relationship
with
life.
Self-image
is
not
who
we
really
are,
but
a
combination
of
who
we
wish
we
were,
who
we're
afraid
we
are,
and
who
we
imagine
other
people
think
we
are We
act
out
in
detail
the
role
we've
assigned
ourselves
in
this
world.
That
role,
our
self
image,
works
like
a
key
that
either
fits
or
doesn't
fit
a
world
full
of
locked
doors.
Different
keys
open
different
doors.
and
some
doors
lead
to
bad
places
as
we
all
know.
It
isn't
easy
to
change
keys,
but
it
is
infinitely
worth
it.
One
reason
is
that
we
always
pass
our
self
image
on
to
our
children;
they
know
us
too
well
to
be
fooled.
If
we
want
our
children
to
walk
tall,
laugh
happily,
and
sing
joyously--we
ourselves
must
do
these
things
for
them
to
see. ~author

found
this
blog
in
a
book
titled
"Days
of
Healing-Days
of
Joy"
it
is
a
daily
meditation.
I
found
it
helpful
and
wanted
to
share
it
in
the
hope
that
it
would
benefit
someone
else...
