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

Relax. Let your illusions go. Turn and face whatever you're running from. Not facing the truth doesn't make the truth go away, no matter how much we hope it will.If you've been running from the truth in some area of your life, gently begin to face what you've preferred to avoid. The power is in the truth. ~The Language of Letting Go
Today I am grateful...
  • that I can be delighted with what my hands can produce
  • for prayers for more discipline
  • for the joys of contentment
  • for the glorious thunderstorm we had yesterday afternoon, even if the thunder about made me jump out of my skin
  • that I can see today as an adventure, not time spent recovering from an impossible intake of tequila
In meditation, debate has no place. We rest quietly with the thoughts or prayers of spiritually centered people who understand, so that we may experience and learn. This is the state of being that so often discovers and deepens a conscious contact with God. ~As Bill Sees It

Adventures are seen clearly without tequila. Thank God.

Thanks to AA I've learned to face whatever comes along and see it through to the other side. A whole new concept for me and it makes all of life livable.

I think that would have been neat-o to watch you jump out of your skin. That would have made a superb painting or photo. Yep.
