Happy Happy Happy Anniversary Mark,

Awe, the day has finally come, if you could see me, I am sort of Dancing a little, or maybe just a little jumping for JOY, for this day, the day you have been waiting for HAS
ARRIVED!!!

Just like our Jerrypie, I share in everyword that Daniella wrote to you, every single word is so right on, you have given SO Much here, you always appear just like a becon of very Bright Light to anyone coming in, scared and worried about if they can make it. Your warmth and compassion are truly amazing, have always felt like it has been God working in HIS mysterious ways.....

With SO MUCH Love this morning, and just want so much to really be able to give you a Hug, and also, with you and Daniella, sort of feeling...well.....WHY CAN'T we have a  real party here.....?????  Ok, will settle for a Spiritual Prayer for you to just feel HIS Glow all day!!!!
Hope you will keep us all very close to your beautiful heart today.

Could go on for a couple of hours on this, YOUR Day, but think I have to Stop myself, and just say a very humble,
Happy 1st year Anniversary to my kindred brother, Mark.

Love you, Tonicakes

Hi Again Mark,

Just got a quick call from JONIJONI, her computer is not working and she was so upset, that she could not sign in and send you a Congratulations on this your 1st year Anniversary, and just wanted you to know she will be in touch with you as soon as she can get on her Computer.

Poor little Joni, think she she was almost in tears, for not being able to share you Joy today, but who knows she might suprise you later with her computer working.

I say this for Joni, Mark, I love you so much and am so very proud and honored to be your friend, Happy Happy Anniversary TODAY, signed, JoniJoni

Love and Hugs, JoniJoni, and little ole me too!

Thanks guys and gals.  As you all know, MIP has been a huge part of this journey thus far.  I love AA in all it's forms.  This may sound trite as many people say this at Anniversary Time, but I did not come into AA expecting to receive the gifts that I have.  I wanted to stop drinking and I wanted to stop acting like a scared little kid all the time.  Well, I received a wonderful fellowship in my hometown and now, thanks to this site, all around the world.  I have stopped drinking for a year.  I only am a scared little kid half the time now which is a large improvement.  In a way, I am a little grateful my whole life is not all perfect and shiny now because this lets me know I have more to work for.  I am not working for specific things but peace within myself.  Certainly I feel it today more than other days but it takes constant effort to work a program and if I turn my back on it now, I deeply know I will revert right back to the same person I was and I will have that same incomprehensible demoralization that I had just before I stepped into my first meeting.  That is gone now.  Everyone here with some sobriety time knows how this works so with this, I am just writing to persons still struggling and just starting the journey.  It does get better and it does work if you work it.

Much congrats Mark!

Sorry I'm late.

You are living proof that the more you put into the program the more you recieve. Your willingness and the results are very obvious.

Keep on the path it's a great way of life.

I, too, am sorry I'm late. Congratulations. I can "feel" your enthusiasm with recovery on every post. Great things await... a day at a time.
