Today I am grateful...
- that I was able to rely on the strength of the AA program when someone dear to me was in a precarious position
- for a friend that interrupted their evening to do something specifically for me, called to find out where I was, came by and dropped something off, just to make me happy
- that I have said many times that getting sober and working a realistic program cleaned out some old dark and nasty stuff to make room for a lot of good stuff to enter, then today I read the following from 'Twenty-Four Hours a Day':
I believe that in the spiritual world, as in the material world, there is no empty space. As fears and worries and resentments depart out of my life, the things of the spirit come in to take their places. Calm comes after a storm. As soon as I am rid of fears and hates and selfishness, God's love and peace and calm can come in.

happy day!
So, My prayers are with him.
