GRATEFUL TO BE A MEMBER
Permalink  
 


Out in Breckinridge with my friend and fellow AA member Dean. He Had me sign up to this board while we're waiting on the sun to come up to hit the slopes.  It has been a beautiful week so far and all I can think of is moments like this dont happen with out sobriety pumping through my veins and a higher power in my soul.  Just listened to some stones.  I think Keith was kind of getting the program years before he was actually getting the program.  As many of our stories go "I was drowned, I was washed up and left for dead. I looked down to my feet and I saw they bled. I frowned at the crumbs of a crust of bread. I was crowned with a spike right through my head. BUT IT'S ALL RIGHT NOW.  IN FACT IT'S A GAS....JUMPIN JACK FLASH.  Thank you Dean.  Thank you all for my sobriety.  Most of all thank you god.

Good Morning Dave,

That scene, on top of a moutain waiting for the Sun to come up, what a beautiful image it creates.

Welcome to our little family here at MIP.

Almost forgot, will you at some point, tap Dean on the shoulder and REMIND him he promised a ride down one of those slopes with him...tell him Toni said so....smile

Lucky you, you have made a friend of one of the greatest representatives of what it means to get sober and stay sober and have a life that is so awesome.....he is one amazing man.....

From another oh so Grateful Recovering Alcoholic,

Only by the Sheer Grace of God do I sit here writing to your my new friend.

Looking forward to getting  to know you Dave!

Toni

I can hear your gratitude and it sounds awesome from where I'm sitting.  During a down time, I find gratitude means more and more to me as I go along this journey.

Continue to enjoy the blessings you have this week!
