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

Do I have the courage today to imagine a better me? ~Today's Gift
Today I am grateful...
  • that the early morning news gave me several things to smile about
  • that one life can make a difference
  • that I slept from 1AM-5AM without waking. True luxury.
  • to remember that day when I realized I wanted what those in the room had
  • that you and I can have the experience of loving each other due to our common bond of addiction
  • that I finished another painting last night (see post above)
There is a direct linkage among self-examination, meditation, and prayer. Taken separately, these practices can bring much relief and benefit. But when they are logically related and interwoven, the result is an unshakable foundation for life. ~12 & 12

Thanks, Tab. I really don't feel too badly, just when the coughing starts it gets uncomfortable. My temperature has been hovering around 99.1 which isn't too bad. My nose is a bit stuffy, but otherwise I feel fairly norma. Thank God.

Feel better. In a way being sick really allows us to embrace the time when we are not sick.
