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

Love acts the part, and even people who cannot define love will respond to it. If love is present in our AA activities, it will cover a multitude of sins and will make up for many other shortcomings. ~Walk in Dry Places

Today I am grateful...
  • for all the love in my life today
  • for comments from lurkers who qualify why I am here on the 'interwebs' every day
  • for the slow, mature changes a life in recovery brings
  • that my reality is less fantasy based than it used to be
  • that my dreams today do not seem too far fecthed as I have had some great accomplishments in my sobriety

Through morning prayers and meditation, we embark upon the day spiritually prepared. Without this preparation, we enter the day with yesterday's anxieties - our own and those of millions of others. ~Marianne Williamson

Lurkers say thank you. Please keep writing and painting!
Take Tuesday, or as much of Tuesday as possible, off -this is history happening.

Greatest accomplishment in my sobriety, is that I have not drank alcohol since I began 34 years ago.

Prayer and meditation are key for me in combatting my defects of character. Doesn't eliminate them but I sure do stay aware of what makes them active and diligent at preventing the circumstances - most days.

AA, it works !

One of the things I constantly tell people is, "Life is almost always Unfair, we even up the odds with love." (Hugs)Indigo

Oh wow. Your blog is a gem, and exactly what I needed at this precise moment. A gentle reminder to pull my head up and start each day anew, with gratitude. Thank you. Now how did I get here again?
