IF THE ONLY PRAYER YOU SAID IN YOUR LIFE WAS "THANK YOU", THAT WOULD SUFFICE. ~Meister Eckhart

Today I am grateful...
  • for a round trip through the Piney Woods of Texas, with barbecue and fat dogs as company
  • to have visited Dave's mom, Pat, and see the great 60s post and beam house he grew up in
  • for another 24 hour reprieve from alcohol and nicotine
  • that today's script is in the hands of my higher power
  • for whomever Unknown is, for they are surely smart (see below)

Remember the five simple rules to be happy:

1. Free your heart from hatred.

2. Free your mind from worries.

3. Live simply.

4. Give more.

5. Expect less. --unknown

LIVE and let live. EASY does it. BUT for the grace of God. THINK think think. FIRST things first. When put in this order five of our sayings produce a sixth saying by taking the first word of each one to make the sixth: LIVE EASY BUT THINK FIRST. --unknown

An old timer had shared in the meeting about praying for something, and that God had answered her request. Someone asked her, "How do you know it was God who granted your request?" She replied... "I didn't ask anyone else." --unknown

"I didn't ask anyone else." That is really a good one.
