Meditation for the Day
As we look back over the year just gone, it has been a good year to the extent that we have put good thoughts, good words, and good deeds into it. None of what we have thought, said, or done need be wasted. Both the good and the bad experiences can be profited by. In a sense, the past is not entirely gone. The result of it, for good or evil, is with us at the present moment. We can only learn by experience and none of our experience is completely wasted. We can humbly thank God for the good things of the year that has gone.
Prayer for the Day
I pray that I may carry good things into the year ahead. I pray that I may carry on with faith, with prayer, and with hope.

DAILY RESOLUTIONS
The idea of "twenty-four-hour living" applies primarily to the emotional life of the individual. Emotionally speaking, we must not live in yesterday, nor in tomorrow.
— AS BILL SEES IT, p. 284
A New Year: 12 months, 52 weeks, 365 days, 8,760 hours, 525,600 minutes — a time to consider directions, goals, and actions. I must make some plans to live a normal life, but also I must live emotionally within a twenty-four-hour frame, for if I do, I don't have to make New Year's resolutions! I can make every day a New Year's day! I can decide, "Today I will do this . . . Today I will do that." Each day I can measure my life by trying to do a little better, by deciding to follow God's will and by making an effort to put the principles of our A.A. program into action.

The sobriety is for me - but hope, my sons will in time see through action and example- I really mean it. Time for sleep bodies, happy new one. PJ
Never give up Hope.
Love transforms all.

It took me a while, and I may need to use my laptop, but I will take on the job if Bakers helper while Kris gets her surgery and some much needed rest. Here is a cake to kick off 2017!

Here is a triple layer cake to kick off the New Year the right way. One layer for health, one layer for friendship, and one layer for gratitude.
Congrats to all celebrating a milestone today! Have a slice of cake to end 2016, and ring in 2017.

I believe that they will, PhoenixJ - action and example will prevail. Believe, trust - let action, example and time work its magic.
