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

It's not so much that my glass is half empty or half full, as it is being grateful that my glass has anything in it at all! ~Pocket Sponsor
Today I am grateful...
  • that today I am willing to listen to other sides of the story than my own
  • that my cause is supported by my personal Higher Power
  • that today I find it much easier to let go and trust that I will be provided for
  • that AA hands out riches that can't be measured by a banker
  • that freshly ground and brewed coffee is a good thing
True open-mindedness does not mean empty-mindedness. We still can have strong convictions, consistent values, and definite opinions. But in the spirit of open-mindedness, we should continuously reexamine our views and adopt new ideas for improvement and growth. Open-mindedness helped bring us to sobriety. It can also open the doors to other blessings that will bring enrichment and happiness. ~Walk in Dry Places

I MUST practice the 1st line of your gratitude list. I think that is going to be the ticket out of this hell week at work. Maybe I'm just seeing my side. Thanks Scott.

Freshly brewed coffee is a very good thing.
