Here for another 24 hours. Today marks 54 consecutive sober days.

One day at a time.

Thanks SR.

Sorry for the size!!



Esspee, he looks adorable and so happy to be home.

The Jaya Sri Maha Bodhi tree, in Anuradhapura, Sri Lanka, was planted in 288 BC from a branch of the tree in India under which Siddharta Gautama attained buddhahood.



I feel very fortunate to have stood near that tree, many many years ago. If I had it all to do over again, would I have spent more time in meditation and less time drinking 100 proof Sri Lankan coconut arrack, a truly vile liquor?


As a good Buddhist would say, that question doesn’t lead to enlightenment. Think not on the past, but be sober & in the present, until you come here next again!

288 BC; that's mind-boggling.

It got warm on the gulf! One day we're bundling up and shivering, then the next day we 're sweating and looking for shade. I am powerless over the weather, but at least my life is no longer unmanageable!!

Congratulations to the milestoners!!!

Check me in for 24 more!!!
