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

Until you make peace with who you are, you'll never be content with what you have. ~unknown

Today I am grateful...
  • that the world of crazies just keeps on going and going
  • that I am a lot less crazy than I used to be
  • that it really does seem like the best stuff lies ahead
  • that God doesn't do to me, but only shines through me
  • for first step meetings that remind me from whence I came

To do what seems impossible, all we need to do is ask for the help we think we need. And we can look within, too, and summon our whole selves to the task at hand. With all that going for us, how can we fail? And when the tough work is over, we'll look back and know we've grown from the experience...our statures will have touched the skies. ~Today's Gift

I am grateful for being less crazy than before as well. This is one of those instances where less is more...

Yes, I don't think that there is any shortage of crazies.

I love that first quote! i've been IN step 7 recently and it's such a good reminder about accepting who I am and that the things I find disagreeable I can have removed if I ask
