Reflection for February 2

We are all mystically united: a mystic bond
of brotherhood makes all men one.

—Carlyle

Reflection

That is another way of saying that no man is an
island – yes, we are all individuals, but at the same
time we are all connected by and to the Creator. There
is something of each of us in all of us. We see ourselves
in each other sometimes better than any mirror we
look into. When we hear each share at meetings we
make that mystical connection. We experience the
comfort of knowing that no matter how isolated we
may feel at times, the mystical bond is always there
waiting for us to connect again.

Affirmation

Help me to know that I am never alone. Help me to
reach out to others like me and to share myself so that
I may find myself.
