That makes perfect sense. That is what keeps me sober. The fact that God has a better plan for me then the one I had for myself.

For me that is one of the many things that made me realize how selfish I had been. I only thought of me and what I wanted/needed. When I went to AA it made me realize the commitment that so many have to the program.
You are correct. We all have something to offer. There could be another single mother out there and maybe it is her day one. You understand her. You can help.
Sometimes we don't have to have all the answers or the solutions. Just having the support of someone that truly understands is a big help.
