It's So Obvious ...

Someone sent me a collection of Short Letters to God. I'll post one each day this week and maybe next week, except for hAAlf-nAAked thursdAAy, of course.

It Is What It Is

that every day I have the opportunity to learn something I did not know the day before

for all of my commitments that force me to get out of the house

that I have my own personal and unique ways of isolating, often undetectable at first glance

that I am at least aware how my isolating is NOT my HP's will for me as it keeps me from doing good things for myself and others

for Starbucks, even by myself

that I got to listen (on Saturday Night) to a friend and fellow blogger tell a room full of recovering alcoholics his personal tale of addiction, lying, cheating and deception AND see how he has acknowledged and faced those problems with Courage and Grace and Dignity
