Life is not a destination. Life is a road we travel. I am grateful to be on this imperfect spiritual journey. From a sailor's sea bag comes experience, strength and hope, along with some flotsam and jetsam.
Deep down in every man, woman, and child is the fundamental idea of God.
It may be obscured by calamity, by pomp, by worship of other things, but in some form or other it is there.
For faith in a Power greater than ourselves, and miraculous demonstrations of that of that power in human lives, are facts as old as man himself. . .
We found the Great Reality deep down with us.
-- Alcoholics Anonymous, p. 55
The power within me is far greater than any fear before me.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
One day at a time.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We cannot direct the wind but we can adjust our sails.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~We surrender to win;
we give away to keep;
we suffer to get well;
we die to live.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Know God;
Know Peace
No God;
No Peace
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Learn to listen;
Listen to learn.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Rule #62:
Do not take my life or myself too damn seriously.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Resentment is like acid, eating away at the vessel it is stored in.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Serenity is not the absensce of conflict, but the abiltiy to cope with it.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Pray is neither black magic or is it a form of demand note.
Prayer is a relationship.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lord, take me where you want me to go;
let me meet who you want me to meet;
tell me what you want me to say
and keep me out of your way.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The problems in my life are not the situations and conditions that I encounter.
It is how I either respond or react to those situations and conditions that transforms them into problems for me.
