i havent forgotten the loneliness i once felt in the days leadin up to the latter days of doin my dirt. its a readily available recollection which creates the emotion of thankfulness and the action of gratitude for that thankfulness. i learned those days and times of loneliness were self-imposed. i aint gotta go too...

“there is a solution,” is a promise made clear in the big book on pg. 25. but it doesnt happen unless i put in the footwork. all i had to do was pick up the simple kit of tools my sponsor laid at my feet. another promise made is that i will find much of...

today i cannot see livin life without the relationship i have with my HP. i reckon the only way i was ever able to in the past was pure self-will. and as we already know, that didnt turn out too damned well for me. its been a very long time since ive started my day,...

here again it was suggested that when times of struggle arise, i take a few moments to keep my big fat mouth shut, recall my mornin daily readins, and check myself to see if i am livin up to what i perceived through meditation. all i truly have to do to make sure i dont...
