Time

There is a principle that states: “Do not let the sun go down upon your anger.”

Alcoholics Anonymous has a similar principle which states: “We continued to take personal inventory and, when we were wrong, promptly admitted it.”

Both of these principles are the same; they hold the same underlying spiritual truth. Time is only on my side when I understand that the time is now. Now is the only time I have. The passing of time only deepens and widens the chasm.

My life is no different. My relationships with people—all relationships with all people—require maintenance; they require growth. Things are sometimes uncomfortable, but only as long as I allow them to be.

Now is the time. The time is now. How can I set my part right today with all people?
