I have no medical evidence that I have brain damage, but I know this; that good feeling I got after about four beers or a couple of shots; that complete feeling of well-being, self confidence and self acceptance - happy, joyous and free. That's the exhilaration of brain cells dying. ~Doug D.
Today I am grateful...
- to have reconnected with an old friend yesterday
- for the synchronicity in my life
- that I reached that decision three and a half years ago to live
- for the gathering of the fellowship in all forms
- that God will rearrange my thoughts today if I just let go
If you agree too easily you will not be trusted. If you disagree too often you will not be believed.
When you strive to be seen as sincere, you most certainly will not be. For true sincerity is never the result of contrivance.
Let go of your need to impress others, and you will indeed be impressive. Let go of your concern for appearances, and you'll be authentically sincere.
The way to be consistently believed is to always speak the truth. The way to be truly respected is to live the big moments and the small ones with integrity. ~Ralph Marston

yeah. What Daave said.
All it takes is 2 Alcoholics to have a meeting
As a relapse prone alcoholic, the one thing I was told not to do is think, that I was my worst enemy at this time. Letting go, how simple, how difficult. I know I will continue to just do the best I can today. Thanks for sharing.
You are so CENTERED. I love that about you!
