Today I am grateful...
- for unlimited spiritual guidance. The sources are everywhere, you just have to look.
- for calm inner resources
- for joys, big and small
- for a late evening 'just to hang out' telephone conversation with a spiritual brother
- that there is more than meets the eye
Intellectually I touched God many times as truth and emotionally I touched God as love. I touched God as goodness. I touched God as kindness. It came to me that God is a creative force, a motivating power, an over-all intelligence, an ever-present, all pervading spirit - which binds everything in the universe together and gives life to everything. That brought God close. I could not be where God is not. You are within God. God is within you. ~Peace Pilgrim

as always - wonderful post! love the quote from Peace Pilgrim. Actually, I love the implication of the name 'Peace Pilgrim'.
Pussy Tourette? OMG...that is the best name ever! The visuals I get are killer.
Happy Monday and Happy May!
I see you,

Thanks, I needed that quote! Seriously it really fits with what I am going through.
wunnering what on earth Matt is referring to. Fabulous posting. I love the quotes too. I thought the last one was something you were writing until I saw the peace pilgrim - I too love that name! You sound graceful and serene today. I feel calm after having read this. Thanks.
The attitude quote really hit home with me. It still amazes me how I can find myself in a certain situation more than once, and depending upon how I perceive it, I can let it make me crazy, or jusr roll along with it. I am only able ot roll along with things when my attitude is right, that is to say when I am seeing things from the perspective of one humble recovering alcoholic, rather than from the perspective of a self centered know-it-all.
Good stuff!
