today's report .....

1966 AMC Marlin

todAAy i AAm grAAteful & thAAnkful

that I got to spend some time with one of my favorite new-in-recovery people yesterday.  I am always amazed at the honesty and frankness of some people.  I guess when we have hit bottom and there's nowhere else to go, honesty and frankness are a bit easier to come by.  Regardless, it's fresh and I'm grateful to be a part of it.


for the camaraderie we experience in recovery; ie: some of the things we laugh at that "normal" people might frown upon.  LOL

that no amount of money can buy "the desire to stop drinking"

that I don't have to be the "boss" any more.  I like just being a follower.

We can always choose to perceive things differently.
You can focus on what's wrong in your life, or you can focus on what's right.

I'll bet that new in recovery person is grateful to have spent some time with you too!

And I almost thought that car was a Matador! Remember those ads? So, THAT's a Matador!

I am glad not to be the boss anymore too. In fact, I am really grateful to just be a member among many.
