Meditation - Whatever Happened to Integrity?

Hello, my dear WA Family, good morning, good afternoon, good evening, or good night from wherever part of this wonderful world you came from.

Here is another one of my daily short meditations by Anne Wilson Schaef, Ph.D.

Thank you so much, and the topic is

Whatever Happened to Integrity?

"Tell me, Mother, what has taken your soul away so cruelly?" - Chungmi Kim -

One of the effects of the addictive disease is to destroy our integrity. We see ourselves doing things at work that compromise our value system, and we say nothing.

We are reprimanded for something for which we were not responsible, and we say nothing. We act in ways that are not in keeping with our own personal morality.

The addiction to doing too much is like any other addiction in that it puts us in a position where we are willing to do anything to get our "adrenalin buzz; to get our "fix."

We see ourselves participating in decisions that are wrong for us, we neglect ourselves, and we neglect our families. We have lost our integrity.

"When we lose our integrity, WE, like Chungmi Kim's Mother, have lost (or at least misplaced) our soul."

Thank you all so much for your precious time reading this post.

God be with you all always in all ways.

In light, love, and peace,

Elizabeth
