Thank God (or whoever your Higher Power is) for that phrase in the Promises. You know, it took me over 20 years to want what others have and to even put any trust in AA or anything else for that matter. Everytime I see some one struggle I thank God for that line in the Promises. It doesn't happen over night. Promises don't all come true the minute or first month or two or even years after you quit drinking and/or drugging. But, if you keep coming back (because it does work if you work it), you will realize when your party is over your party is over. Sometimes quickly sometimes slowly. But who the heck cares, as long as we get there. And then those Promises will blow your mind. No burning bush for me gang. My personality is my burning bush. Cause I was a pathetic, depressed, angry, Byotch.

Have a blessed day everyone, and remember . . . the newcomers, and I consider myself a newbie . . . is always watching. Let us all lead by example. HOW do whe do that: Honest Open and Willing. WHO will help us. Well we have to be Willing Honest and Open with our Higher Power.

Yep Sometimes Quickly and Sometimes Slowly.

I hope everyone has the best day ever.
