Some people? Could you be talking about, um, alcoholics possibly?
Great point Tom - It is like some people have a positive outlook on life and see the good in whatever activities they participate in - Versus those that focus a little too much on the negative aspects.
I admit I thrive a bit on drama and also have a HUGE problem with mis-placed authority. I am working on it and asking for help.
I can promise you that I was pretty darn negative when I was drinking or early on in my sobriety, but that subsided over time. Now I have a lot more patience for things that I used to not be able to handle!
I went to High Watch Farm last night with a couple of friends for the open three-speaker meeting. Wow. Pretty f-ing amazing. The second guy who spoke made a huge point of saying that although he was full of suggestions, it was not up to him to tell anyone how to be spiritual or run their program. It was like bread from heaven and I listened to him with rapt attention...
