Sometimes we hafta stand up and fight for what we beleive in buddy--and sometines we are up against no win situations.


But at least we give it our best shot and leave the outcomes upstairs. Those outcomes dont always turn out the way we want them to.


Sometimes its like trying to push over a big tree--they just dont move-lol


I sometimes hafta look at things and just accept. The Serenity prayer helps--a few dozen times a day:)


I sometimes wish that I had all the solutions and answers in life. I dont.


Some days I still struggle-just like everyone else here. Still learning to walk the walk.


There are people in my life today that have been sober--20-25-30 years.


And walk around with their noses in the air-saying Hey!! Life is great!! Whippee!!


Telling everyone else how to work their program, and what they need to do.


Ive seen a couple of these people, when the shit hits the fan and is dispersed all over the room.


What happened? They picked up a drink.


Pride and Ego. And the great I Am.


 I used to think that after a certain amount of time in AA that I had all the answers. Well buddy-Im still trying to figure out the questions, some days.


Welcome to the real world-lol
