A Day for Love

todAAy i AAm grAAteful & thAAnkful

that my Mom accepts her limitations but continues to keep trying to get better

that in my early months in AA, I kept coming back and I didn't give up even though I had no desire to stop drinking

that although it took me 2 months into sobriety to get a sponsor, I finally did and he showed me the possibilities available to me in sobriety

that I am (so far) able to handle the responsibilities that have come my way as a result of my Mom's permanent illness

that it's Valentine's Day and I hope all of you to whom it is important can make it a special day

If you judge people, you have no time to love them.
