Really Meaningful Quote

I keep a sobriety journal full of inspiring quotes. I was actually reading a magazine article about a teacher and a father and he said this quote means the most to him:

If it is important to you, you will find a way. If it is not, you will find an excuse.

Needless to say, this one went right into my sobriety journal.

I will be two years sober in September, folks. I was a lifelong drinker and I quit in my early forties. It CAN be done and if it is important to you, you WILL find a way.

Great quote. It also applies to spending time with people. People who always have an excuse clearly don't really care.
