"The horror of that moment," the King went on, "I shall never forget." "You will, though," the Queen said, "if you don't make a memorandum of it."
—Lewis Carroll
Crises come in many forms. When we are in the middle of any kind of crisis, we may feel like we have fallen into a deep hole. We may see no way out and begin to feel hopeless and overwhelmed by the size and darkness of the hole.
Yet we are not alone. An animal caught in a hole would cry out until someone came along and helped it out. We, too, can call out for help - to our Higher Power and to the important people in our lives. We can learn to trust that, with the help of our friends and our Higher Power, we will be able to crawl out of our holes.
With trust, we will climb out of our crises and be healed with the passage of time. Such holes are a part of our landscape, yet every time we will be able to climb out and walk, leaving the darkness behind us.
What help can I ask for today?
Prayer for the Day
I pray that God's spirit may be my master always. I pray that I may learn how to rest and listen, as well as how to work.
Well it looks like I can't leave your support means too much to me.
Love and hugs lovely people.
24 more for this alcoholic that for the moment is lost.

9:08 and checking in for another 24. The work week is definitely resting my sanity so far, thank goodness I have a few incredible colleagues to keep me from going off the deep end.
There are only a few weeks left in the school year, which always brings hectic and crazy days. Tomorrow I am meeting up with a few other principals after work to hike away some of the end of year stress.
I have definitely been working long days, but the advantage is I feel good heading into the final stretch. I have about a million professional books I want to read right now, and I'm having a hard time figuring out which to start with!
Hope everyone is doing well.

God Bless Delilah.
Good morning all! Well I made it. One week ago I began the week from hell but it's brought me back here and it's got me a week of sobriety so for that I am grateful. The depth of how poorly I've been has truly terrified me at times and I am still slowly recovering physically but it has served to give me acceptance that I can never ever drink again. Period. I am in for another 24. Love to all ❤❤❤
I am/we are so very proud of you. Congratulations on one week of sobriety. I know how very challenging and difficult this week has been for you.
It is going to get easier. We are here for you every step of the way.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hi all. Welcome to SteveAlex, and hugs for Mizz and anyone else having a tough time.
I've got a long and busy day ahead, not looking forward to it. There's a lady who I find really difficult and she's been off on maternity leave for a while but coming in for a meeting today. She makes my blood pressure rise immediately as she's such a drama Queen. I'm praying for serenity around this.
Congratulations to all the milestoners.
24 more please. Love to you all ❤️

I always think of the introduction to Evangeline when you post about the forest.
Introduction to Evangeline: A Tale of Acadie
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, 1807 - 1882
This is the forest primeval. The murmuring pines and the hemlocks,
Bearded with moss, and in garments green, indistinct in the twilight,
Stand like Druids of old, with voices sad and prophetic,
Stand like harpers hoar, with beards that rest on their bosoms.
Loud from its rocky caverns, the deep-voiced neighboring ocean
Speaks, and in accents disconsolate answers the wail of the forest.
This is the forest primeval; but where are the hearts that beneath it
Leaped like the roe, when he hears in the woodland the voice of the huntsman?
Where is the thatch-roofed village, the home of Acadian farmers,--
Men whose lives glided on like rivers that water the woodlands,
Darkened by shadows of earth, but reflecting an image of heaven?
Waste are those pleasant farms, and the farmers forever departed!
Scattered like dust and leaves, when the mighty blasts of October . . . .
