You words ring true. What is good for the gander is good for the goose. I know the goose likes to take a gander at the gander and that ganders like to goose goose geese. :)
I love Christy Lane's songs. Her song, "One Day At A Time" has always comforted me. We say that in my meetings a lot, lol. Sometimes we say five minutes at a time, lol.
Thank you. Arise and shine for thy light has come and the glory of the Lord is risen upon you. The words will come when you let them come out. All good things come to those who wait upon the Lord. You shall run and not be weary. You shall walk and not faint. Teach me Lord to wait. :)
Great Spirit of love and passion make me a blessing of compassion. Build me big enough to help others but small enough so I am a brother. Guide my footsteps on the right path so that I am not consumed by my wrath. Give me the knowledge that I need thee and pure light so others can see. Mold my will into thy will for power so that I won't be a corrupted flower. Make me a beacon that shines light in shadow and through darkest night. Form me into a friend with a hand that can share love in your land. Teach me how to know thy truth so that I don't need reproof. Transform me pliable and strong and give me a happy song. Shape me into a lighthouse of victory and make me a sanctuary.
Once upon a time there was this big mud ball. And on the big mud ball was a little mud ball. The little mud ball became known as Adam. Adam named things and said, "Hi, I'm, Adam". Adam talked to things and called them names. Adam would hear this voice and play games. This voice told Adam that it was his friend. It kept Adam from being lonely to the end. The voice said Adam was from the mud ball. It told Adam to name things big and small. Adam decided he was alone on the mud ball. He really didn't like that feeling at all. One day he woke up and found something new. He never seen "IT" before and named "IT", too. He pointed right at and said, "You're Eve". "IT" said, "Yeah, whose says, I am Eve". "IT" terrified Adam because "IT" talked back. Adam asked the voice to please take "IT" back. The voice said no; You are stuck with "IT". Adam asked, "But what do I do with "IT". The voice said "IT" is a present deal with "IT".
I am very thankful for the replies. It means a lot to me to know that there are fellow suffers out there. I just love the moment of silence before every meeting for the alcoholics, addicts, alanons and the children caught in the crossfire..
Want you to know that sincerity does not always come easy. Want you to know that honesty can sometimes be a struggle. Want you to know that your opinion is important to me. Want you to know that you have an influence on how I see. Want you to know that your friendship matters a lot. Want you to know that I am not always right about things. Want you to know that I can get really moody at times. Want you to know that I need my space sometimes. Want you to know that even when I seem distant; I still care. Want you to know that you are valuable to me even when we disagree. Want you to know that I am not you and sometimes not even me. Want you to know that I am still learning new ways to look at things. Want you to know that you matter always in my mind and in my heart. Want you to know that even we can't be together; I still think of you. Want you to know that I always try to be here for you; even if I can't.
