“Life is not so short but that there is always time enough for courtesy,” – Ralph Waldo Emerson
“For today: Acting with courtesy toward myself and others contributes much toward feeling good about myself, and enables me to share it with others.”
Although I understand that being courteous has nothing to do with being right or wrong, especially when it comes to an argument that I feel strongly about, I’m not sure if I can ever master it. But my goal for today, just for today is recognizing how I can be courteous to others. I work in a circle where people constantly try to one-up each other, and although I don’t engage in that behavior, I will go out of my way to spread some genuine courtesy in my work area!

I'm definitely nicer to others than I am to myself. I'm not sure why I don't think I deserve the same basic treatment I give to others. Although I know that I can be nice/more courteous to people in all situations regardless of how they are acting. It's hard for me to stay nice when the other person isn't.0

I think I know what you mean with this statement. I'm in the process of exploring for myself why I don't think I am deserving of good things, too.0 -

Recovery is a journey of learning to love ourselves and take care of ourselves.0
