Flossing

Do you floss your soul? I floss my teeth each evening before I go to bed. I get rid of mess that a brushing cannot reach. It keeps me from losing my teeth so I am told. Then I floss my soul. Religion calls it examination of conscience and AA calls it a tenth step. I look over my day and ask where I have messed up either in action or attitude. I ask what I could have done better and did I cause hurt to others that need attention. This helps me to get at some messes in my life that might not be readily apparent or that I already forgot about. I ask God for forgiveness and help to do better. Then I go to sleep. If you don't floss your teeth you lose them, right? Well what happens if you don't floss your soul?
