Every child is an artist. The problem is remain an artist once your grow up. ~Pablo Picasso
Today I am grateful...
  • that the reward is closer with every step
  • that Boston got her diploma
  • to have a day for myself with no agenda other than attending a noon meeting
  • oh, for the agenda of staying sober
  • that recovery was in my life plan
  • that I am so in love with my Internet radio

Even though we simplify things, most things are harder than we think. It's important to let each person go at their own pace. Whether it's working through an issue or tackling a project in your life, find the pace that works for you. Let others do the same. Don't compare yourself to those around you. Let yourself be energized by their pace, but respect the rhythm that works for you. ~The Language of Letting Go

Thanks, Scott. I loved that quote from Picasso...

I read somewhere once that we ..."have to honor everyone, wherever they are on their journey." Everyone can't be the leader in the parade, and some of us have to crawl before we can walk.

Have a good day off....enjoy.

You sound so peaceful.

Well, I didn't really "hear" you, maybe you "look" so peaceful, since I read about it instead of hearing about it. OK, I need to go to bed.
