The unique ability of each A.A. to identify himself with, and bring recovery to, the newcomer in no way depends upon his learning, his eloquence, or any special individual skills. The only thing that matters is that he is an alcoholic who has found a key to sobriety. ~As Bill Sees It
Today I am grateful...
- that as much as I hate artificial heat, I sure am grateful that my home comes equipped with a heater
- that in sobriety I have a place in life
- that today I am not afraid to stand in my place, to voice what is my truth
- that more than likely today I will have enough
- for the sustaining power of God
I know that the vision and power that I receive from God are limitless, as far as spiritual things are concerned. But in temporal and material things, I must submit to limitations. I know that I cannot see the road ahead. I must go just one step at a time, because God does not grant me a longer view. I am in uncharted waters, limited by my temporal and spatial life, but unlimited in my spiritual life. ~Twenty-Four Hours a Day

Daave sounds so neanderthal. HEH HEH HEH HEH HEH HEH!
You could come to my house and stand with your bo-hiney up to the fireplace....it feels sooo good. Especially if you pull your P.J. bottoms down when no one is looking. Just sayin.
Uncharted waters and no sextant--I've been there. Glad that I have a heading towards recovery today.
Gratitude is what saves me on a daily basis! Whenever I am feeling sorry for myself, bitter, or resentful- I have to remember how much I have to be grateful for. Since I found recovery my life has been full of wonderful things!
Wow. Artificial heat. I would never think of that. But I HATE air conditioning. I consider it a necessary evil. I bet you don't.
Sentinel with Curl is cool. I wish I had that much hair. I'd let it grow and make a pompodor. (sp)
