“For today: I pray to be less critical and more helpful toward others, especially children.”

Had to share the For Today reading because it speaks on courage and self-confidence. It reminds us that the words we put out, mainly to children, shapes who they become as adults. As a child I remember my grandmother would harshly criticize me (as well as all of her grandkids) and I had self-esteem issues as a young adult, through adulthood. Since joining OA, I realized how much damage that caused me, which led to my COE. I am grateful to be blessed with two awesome young adults who were raised with praise, support and love. I made it a point, pretty much every day to tell them how special, beautiful, and loved they are, which were my truest words spoken.

I hope that some of you can relate to this.
