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

10.21.05

...even the smallest, slowest steps, when they have a well-defined direction, can take you to the most ambitious and valuable goal. Once you're clear about your direction, your thoughts and actions will begin to take you there. For your life is a swift arrow in need of a target. -Ralph Marston

Today I am grateful...
  • for the trust of a sponsee
  • for the knowledge of having faults and that with some work they will not kill me
  • for cold fronts that chase away hurricanes
  • for the privilege of watching others grow in their program
  • for all the luxuries my life brings me
  • that I have access to one of the country's best recovery centers, Lambda, and that it is only five minutes from home
  • for a direct experience of accepting what God has provided

Today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday. --unknown

Joy increases as you give it, and diminishes as you try to keep it for yourself. In giving it, you will accumulate a deposit of joy greater than you ever believed possible. --Norman Vincent Peale

That recovery center to which you refer - Lambda - is that in Texas?
I have heard that pink people go there.
Are you pink?

I'm glad for cold fronts that chase away hurricanes too. I'm just not in the mood for another hurricane. Hopefully this storm will not cause too much damage on the areas it hits.

GO ASTROS!
