Good morning beautiful people
Suffering allergies big time sinuses headache galore I hope one day ....
Well let’s do this 24 more for this soul
Destruction. Crashing realities exploding in imperfect landings. Ouch. It's my heart that's breaking, for these have been my fantasies and my world.
—Mary Casey
We frequently aren't given what we want - whether it's a particular job, a certain relationship, a special talent. But we are always given exactly what we need at the moment. None of us can see what tomorrow is designed to bring, and our fantasies are always tied to a future moment. Our fantasies seldom correlate with the real conditions that are necessary to our continued spiritual growth.
Fantasies are purposeful. They give us goals to strive for, directions to move in. They are never as far-sighted as the goals our higher power has in store for us, though. We have far greater gifts than we are aware of, and we are being pushed to develop them at the very times when it seems our world is crashing down.
We can cherish our fantasies - but let them go. Our real purpose in life far exceeds our fondest dreams. The Steps have given us the tools to make God's plan for us a reality.
How limited is my vision, my dreams. If one of mine is dashed today, I will rest assured that an even better one will present itself, if I but let it.

It was a difficult journey to get back on the right track.

I wanted to bump this.
And to say: me too. 1993 was the year I first went to AA.
I didn't get a full year like you did, but I started a journey that ultimately saved my life...it's not easy to keep drinking with AA in your head.
I am so glad you got yourself back on the right track love ~ this world is a far better place with you in it.
