I disagree they have to be sudden and beyond everyday…

You want to witness a miracle, how about:

•Eating

•Breathing

🤔

•Giving birth

•A seedling pushing itself up thru asphalt

•The 🌞 coming up

•Your children living to old age

•Your children dying young

OK I’ll throw one in for the sake of tradition 🤔

•A mother praying for her child who has cancer and -it disappears 🤷‍♂️

I remember when attending the local Community College, I… dunno what it was, a period of clarity, or insanity, where I thought I had the answer to anything -oooooooo-k? Really going out on a limb with this one tain’t-I 🤓

You’ve heard of “Conversations With God”? Well I thought 🤔 “Thoughts From God” might be appropriate-I mean if you had to give this a name.

In the MMAI heard a coach say once that the training has to be much more intense than the fight itself. That way when they get in the ring…. They will not be taxed nearly as much as they were in training. They will not run out of gas… Some people in training take on multiple opponents at once. Alcoholics Anonymous is the same way in my opinion. Staying sober is the easy part -following a strict regiment of the program… That’s the hard part! If I do that -staying sober will follow as a byproduct. I have found this to be my experience anyways.

To make 20 pounds seem easier you gotta lift 30. To make 30 pounds seem easier you gotta lift 40. Always staying one step ahead is how you increase strength.

Have you tried to develop a line of communication with your pet?

The idea of praying for your team to win… Never sat quite right with me even though I’ve done it a million times lol I mean for real, God’s going to… 🤷‍♂️😄

I’m watching “The Mongoose Bandits of Seous” on YouTube. They’re talking about grooming and bonding and unity.. If they had the kind of unity we do here in America… But they don’t have an army, they don’t have law enforcement, all they have is each other and God. But is unity only about safety? I think not! Watching this program, there is a lot more to it than simply being safe. Theirs:

•The feeling that you’re secure

•Being bonded with one another

•Functioning as a unit has numerous advantages advantages inwardly and outwardly

•And with regard to we here in the States, sure we have an army to protect us from foreign foreign invaders but what good is it with regard to domestic ones? The American society has been ravaged by corporate America and Internet piracy and so forth. There are millions of lonely people in this country. Vulnerable people who are exploited every day with no one to protect them. The list could go on and on and on but I don’t have all the answers and I don’t know all the scenarios -I just know that any group that is not United -has nothing!

Many animals take care of the off-spring of their fellow group or tribe members. I’m sure somewhere in man’s history this is true as well. But it’s quite apparent to me that this is intermittent throughout history at best!

On the way to the University this afternoon to take Daisy out out for her walk I saw a young lady carrying a gallon of milk somewhat labored along with a bag with some other items from the grocery store I suppose. It was. It reminded me of my grandmother and mother and all those years that she would go to work, get off the bus at the Von’s, get the groceries and carry the bag home 3/4 of a mile. Back then they had paper bags not plastic ones with handles. When I think back 🤔, full of angst and resentment and anger towards my father among other things… I don’t even have to think back -I know! I never appreciated anything my grandmother did for me! What I did have was a vendetta against the world! Excuse me, but I don’t know the right word for what it was but… There were so many things that weren’t right about my life and so many things that won’t write about me – That’s all I know! 🤷‍♂️

Many years ago I saw a sticker on the back of a car window that said coexist with all these different symbols making up the word. And I thought to myself “Let’s not simply coexist -let’s proexist”. Well I saw a similar sticker today no that reminded me of that other moments in time – God just keeps reminding me moment to moment to come A-day after day things to put down on this website. Some of them from 25 or more years ago. WAYTA-GO-GOD!!!!! 👍 WAYTA-GO! 🙏

My grandmother taught me not to just think of God when something’s wrong but when something’s right. My faith and my affinity towards God I have my grandmother Minnie to thank for.

Well Daisy and I were out walking the downtown mall earlier this afternoon she got frightened by a water fountain and veered right into my foot as I was stepping down on the pavement while walking*. Do you know how easily I could have snapped one of her legs do or stepped on her all together? A-NOTHER GOD-MOMENT!!!! THANK YOU LORD🙏

*Honestly, I wasn’t even looking down and she feared right into my foot falling over practically…Had she gone under my foot or even got a leg caught by the edge of my shoe which would have been very easy to do when I looked down in the position she was in… Shakes his head

I believe if a soul feels strongly enough, in certain cases, God makes allowances! There’s a movie which illustrates such a phenomenon, which is likely where this particular notion came to me -Ana and I loved the movie BTW.

Bout twenty-some year ago 🤔 (probably a tad longer), I figured a $1000 a week clear would probably enough for me to do just about anything I ever wanted to. Now it’s probably closer to $1500.

WE GOTTA GET OUT OF THIS PLACE

I wish I could get out of here -move some place where I feel like I belong. Some place beautiful and peaceful where you’re known by your name and not constantly being hounded for your money by ads and commercials and billboards. Someplace near water,and a large town to see the sights occasionally 😪

TRUST-FUND 👶

I always said that if I hit it big I’d take half of it -and put it in a trust fund for people in need. I mean if I wouldn’t a 100 million dollars I wouldn’t take half for myself. I’d put enough of it in a bank account so I could live off the interest of $75000 a year tax free. Maybe a $100000 by the time… 🤷‍♂️

The day before Thanksgiving 2020 I started “The poem of the Man-God.pdf” for the 3rd time. It’s about a 19 and a 1/2 month read -4 double pages at a time every day (8 pages/ a day-597.25 days (19.90833333 months/1 year 7 months 27.75 days) to complete -i’m growing old each round 😄). It’s August 13th (Friday the 13th) 2021 and I am about to start page 142 of volume 3 of the 5-volume set. I’ve been doing this fairly regularly since 2013 or 14. I mean the poem of the man God I have basically been reading consecutively for effectively for the last 49 months? Then before that I read The Bible 3 times which took approximately 10 and a 1/2 months at 4 chapters A-day. So did I start back in 2013 or 2014? There was a break between The Bible after the 1st and 2nd read. 🤔 let’s see if we can figure this out -even though I should be doing my P.O.T.M-G. reading right now. If I count backwards from Thanksgiving 2020 -40 months, then subtract another 32 months to having accounted for reading The Bible 3 times in succession – That takes me back to November 2014. I believe I1st attempted to read it some time in the fall of 2013 September-October. I tried reading an entire book which took about 3 and a 1/2 to 4 hours. Then I put it down for several months… I’m going to ask God 🤔 The question I asked was whether or not I read that 1st book threw in 2012 and the answer was heads. Then I said -so it wasn’t 2013 and the answer was heads. So it wasn’t 2014 and the answer was heads lol Thoroughly confused, I asked 2011 -and it was tales. So to the best of my knowledge and based on God’s answers, it appears to be 2012, somewhere around September or October was when I read one of the books through for the 1st time. Discouraged I did not pick up the book until sometime sometime around around February-March 2013 – Several weeks in, that was when the bird began to build the nest in the wreath in the door or left out for Christmas. I know my 2nd or 3rd go around was in 2015 because I remember visiting Lenelle and doing the reading on my knees which I started at approximately halfway through my 2nd read and entirely through the 3rd read. I’m fairly certain I took a break after the 1st read – It was never my initial intention to read it multiple times. So if you go back straight from Thanksgiving of last year in successive months you end up at November 2014. If you go by the date above of February-March of 2013 and add 10 and a 1/2 months to do the reading – which puts me right around December 2013. That puts a down time of around 11 months. As I said I didn’t read The Bible through 3 successive times without any break.I may not have even done so the 1st time around with the poem of the man God as I also had no initial intention of reading it multiple times -to the best of my recollection. So there you have it. It would appear that the same year we (God and I) opened up this Web page, 2012 -Some months later I made my one more attempt at reading The Bible after numerous failed attempts earlier in my adult life. So there you have it.*

* Now keep in mind, the significance of all this reading… The time line is more for me personally. The significance of all this reading however is to find out for one’s self, in this case about God. Perhaps no subject has more fluff and rumor and opinion and buy is floating around than th net of The Bible. “Oh. God” (lol) to be more specific! Where did that “Oh” come from? 😄 George Burns? John Denver? Ha!

God/AA asks that we attempt to show kindness and consideration for every human being as much as possible -it doesn’t say WE HAVE TO MARRY THEM! 😄

a-z sobriety it’s not where ur at that keeps you sober -its where ur going

I used to do things for u so u could appreciate (value) me instead of me appreciate (value) me. My opinion of myself apparently didn’t matter much

They say money and winning solve a lot of problems – I think they cause some too! Many people in Alcoholics Anonymous will tell you that alcohol solved a lot of their problems -but did they really?

I believe alcohol kept me from going insane for a it’s going insane for a time.

I used to tell people in the hospital that drinking was something of a rider passage in our country.. You might be able to get by with it through your mid twenties…. But come on

What does man have a tendency to do when there’s not sufficient evidence to find someone innocent? And what do they tend to do when there’s not sufficient evidence to find someone guilty? There’s a little bit of a difference in both approaches.

In the child support system man chooses aside. With God it with God he looks out for the best interest of everyone.

When one human being commits a crime against another human being God suffers both whereas we human beings tend to suffer 1.
