Blessings to ya, Dee - I really needed this right now; sitting feeling a bit flat and blah, in the sort-of-vacant time before dinner. Even had a few drinking thoughts an hour or so ago. I get a bit scared by them now when they pop up.
Yeah, the writings on Spiritual River (by Patrick I think) have helped me quite a bit. (He's into physical fitness regimes though: eek! Still, it works well for so many - each to their own. Walking my dog through the bush or along the beach is about it for me).
Cheers, ole chook,
Vic
