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

"I don't stay clean on yesterday's recovery." --unknown

Today I am grateful for...
  • three until 2
  • for the short-term and long-term benefits of recovery
  • that today more growth springs from gratitude than anywhere else
  • that I feel a closeness to people and my higher power than ever before
  • that I only need for a little bit of stuff to make sense so I can keep on track
  • to understand that to associate vengeful qualities to God is to make God into the devil
  • that if the God force is the creating force, then all thoughts are from that source

The newcomer feels he has struck something better than gold. He may not see at once that he has barely scratched the limitless lode which will pay dividends only if he mines it for the rest of his life and insists on giving away the entire product. -Alcoholics Anonymous, pp. 128-129
