 Each Day a New Beginning.



It's ironic, but until you can free those final monsters within the jungle of yourself, your life, your soul is up for grabs.
--Rona Barrett


We all have monsters. Maybe it's depression over the past or present circumstances, or resentment about another's behavior, or fear of new situations. Maybe it's jealousy of other women. The more attention we give the monsters, the more powerful they get. The harder we try to resist the jealousy or depression or fear, the greater it becomes.


The program offers us the way to let go. And we find the way through one another. When we share ourselves fully with one another, share our monsters with one another, they no longer dominate us. They seek the dark recesses of our minds, and when we shine the light on them, they recoil. The program offers us an eternal light.


I will let the program shine its light in my life today. My monsters will flee for the day.
