To practice five things under all circumstances constitutes perfect virtue; these five are gravity, generosity of soul, sincerity, earnestness, and kindness.
--Confucius
Some of us were raised to decline generosity - to argue over who pays the restaurant bill, not to accept money for helping someone out, not to accept food or drink at someone's home. Some of these beliefs have strong cultural ties. Others are just a fear of imposing. We don't want to be a bother.
Generosity is a two-way street. It's just as important for someone to be generous as it is to accept the offerings. Most of us like to be generous. When we're being genuine, from the heart, with no strings attached, being generous makes us feel good -- it makes us feel great. We have no reason to deny others that feeling (unless, of course, these are strings attached). In fact, our own generosity is probably just coming back to us.
Writ a one page reflection on the following:
1. In what area of your life do you need to learn to accept generosity?
2. In what area of your life do you need to practice kindness more?
3. In your own words what is virtue?
If you ever need any help feel free to call us, or e-mail us at PhoenixRecovery@hotmail.com
We would be glad to help.

1. It keeps it fresh in our mind between sessions.
2. Successful recovery has a dedication to on-going learning and growth.
3. Some of the topics we cover include much depth and require time to process the thoughts.
4. This also introduces us to the idea of journaling.
