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

When you are grateful fear disappears and abundance appears. ~Anthony Robbins

Today I am grateful...

  • that on the eve of my third sober birthday I have a life free from many of my old trappings
  • for the freedom of a God of my understanding
  • for a program of recovery that is actually a guide for living life
  • for a fellowship that taught me I do not have to do it alone again, ever
  • for the conundrum of surrendering to win
  • for Lambda Center, where we can gather and express who we really are, never fearing recrimination or punishment
  • for Honesty, Openmindedness and Willingness…the HOW of the program
  • that I no longer feel as though I am a fraud because I work the program of Alcoholics Anonymous
