todAAy i AAm grAAteful & thAAnkful
for progress in my "taking care of me" program
that a friend who relapsed this week is OK; he is in the hospital after getting mugged coming from a bar Wednesday night
that relapse is not part of my program -- as I watch others who go back out, I see how difficult it is to get back into recovery
for a Higher Power that is so understanding
that my feelings often have little to do with the facts

Damn, I remember when getting mugged coming home from the bar was all a part of the "bar experience". Enjoy your friday daver dave
Facts are black and white. Feelings have all the colors of the rainbow. I am grateful I have the 96 count box of Crayons today.
I pray I never become a relapser. I can think of nothing worse.
That photo makes me cringe. I'm glad that you're sober and haven't relapsed. Have a good weekend.
Relapse has not been a part of my program either. I will keep it that way with God's help and my following through with the tools of Alcoholics Anonymous.
That picture is worth a thousand words. Seems like so few cans tho.
Luv ya, Daave.
I went to the old-timers meeting today, average sobriety about 25 years. Not many relapsers in that bunch. Love it.
there but for the Grace of God go I...
prayers for your friend, he is lucky to have you around...
As for that picture: YIKES
