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

Smooth seas do not make skillful sailors. ~Proverb

Today I am grateful...
  • for a friend's story yesterday who started partying at 13 and got sober at 21
  • for my Higher Power's healing grace that brought me up from the bottom of the barrel
  • that I will strive for an open mind and an open heart today
  • that I get to work with David S creating beauty in our wake
  • that someone would call me for spiritual advise. My phone never rang when I was in my last years of drinking.
  • that dAAve called me for NYC meeting directions while I was IMing with JJ. Technology connecting me with two of my favorite drunks.

When everything seems to be going against you, remember that the airplane takes off against the wind, not with it. ~Henry Ford
