keepin my life simple is not always easy. my mind tells me i need everythin right now, and it must look a certain way, or else it doesnt feel like enough. that old alcoholic thinkin still tries to run the show. ive learned that it does me no good to create lists i cannot possibly live up to, nor to demand that life unfold accordin to my expectations. this thing we do has shown me that simplicity is not just possible, but essential. when i keep my life simple, i get to live with a quiet happiness and peace. i often think about this thing we do and ask myself: where would i be if recovery depended on perfectly fulfillin a set of rules? i know the answer, and it isnt good. thankfully, the only requirement was an honest desire not to take that first drink. humbled by Gods grace and my willingness to take that one step, i get to live a life that is far different from what i once imagined, different in the best of ways. 1 day @ a time…
