Excerpted From: Daily Recovery Readings – June 23 – Just for Today Meditations

This morning I read a vital life lesson from Alcoholics Anonymous’ Daily Recovery Readings. I immediately shared it with our children and now with you – my SDT family. So, here it is, and may God bless you as you continue to live one day at a time.

*“Real friends are those who, when you’ve made a fool of yourself, don’t feel that you’ve done a permanent job.”*
Erwin T. Randall

What kind of friends do we have? Are they people who complain a lot? Are they people who laugh at us or put others down?

The kind of people we want to be will decide what kind of friends we have. If we want to feel sorry for ourselves, we will choose friends who will tell us how rotten their lives are. If we want to think we’re better than others, we will hang around people who laugh at others’ mistakes.

But if we want to be the best we can be, we will pick friends who see the good in life, people who will encourage us to be ourselves and who will help us try harder at things that are difficult for us.

How can I be a better friend today?
