There will be Thanksgiving dinner later today at my mother's with the rest of my family, which I'm looking forward to. Everyone else tends to drink a lot, but I'm used to being the odd sober one out at family functions. I just tend to hang around the kids.

I am always the odd one out when it comes to drinking at family functions, too. I've become used to it and it actually feels really good to be different in that regard. So much alcoholism in my family.
Everyone hides behind functionality and lives in denial. They such wonderful human beings - it's such a rotten disease.

For this alcoholic 24 more please.
Meditation for the Day
Pray - and keep praying until it brings peace and serenity and a feeling of communion with One who is near and ready to help. The thought of God is balm for our hates and fears. In praying to God, we find healing for hurt feelings and resentments. In thinking of God, doubts and fears leave us. Instead of those doubts, and fears, there will flow into our hearts such faith and love as is beyond the power of material things to give, and such peace as the world can neither give nor take away. And with God, we can have the tolerance to live and let live.
Prayer for the Day
I pray that I may have true tolerance and understanding. I pray that I may keep striving for these difficult things.
