I have a choice and I'm free
Life is a trip
allowing myself ..now that's the fun part.
not even on a path, trail, road, highway...left ,right, up, or down
it's open.
The limitations are from me or how much I allow myself.
Unconditional, means no conditions or limits ...I guess.

I rejoice in the Lord, I stand on his word, I claim his promises, May my life give him glory. May Gods Great Goodness touch your heart. Our creator, our life giving force for good is the light and love we all need. May your thoughts and actions reflect his love through hope and faith in him.

I like to walk on the sidewalk myself. Last time I hung around on the highway I got hit by a motorcyle.

Stay off the highway Ed. Its dangerous.

Come on Ed....lets really stir the pot and talk about how everyones concept is good enough to make a beginning but is inadequate, and limited. How one must perfect, and enlarge, their spiritual life.

Quit *****-footin' around and slam em with the whole truth and nothing but the truth, so help you God.

One of the brilliant ideas in the 11th step is that the word "sought" is there. "Sought" in this context means "continue to seek". Doesn't say I "found" my conscious contact with my HP.
