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

...humans have such a need to break everything down into right and wrong. It never occurs to you that you’ve made those labels up to help you define the material—and your Self.

This day I am grateful...
  • for naps at any time of day
  • that Gustave missed the Houston area. We may get some rain tomorrow from it.
  • that the insanity levels of my past are much lower these days, but I recognize they are not gone completely
  • that AA is disaster management (thanks Meredith)
Worry is just about the worst form of mental activity there is—next to hate, which is deeply self destructive. Worry is pointless. It is wasted mental energy. It also creates bio-chemical reactions which harm the body, producing everything from indigestion to coronary arrest, and a multitude of things in between.

How often I say to someone, "Don't worry!" (Or someone says it to me.) So simple, don't worry...like "Don't hurry!"

So, I copied your quote from "Conversations With God for Sept 1, I don't have the book--it's probably on-line, anyway?)

Worry is just about the worst form of mental activity there is—next to hate....." Thanks
