The more time I spend where GOD is -the better I FEEL!
LORD, protect my mind; from enemies -both foreign and domestic!
Some things rub people the wrong way that shouldn’t affect inspire them! Spur them to change in fact!
Indicators of spiritual well-being and spiritual decline?
Just as a child runs to a parent when frightened or confused…. And so it should be with us and GOD who is our Heavenly Father -and we HIS children! Is it not therefore better to remain in a perpetual state of fear and confusion?
Alcoholics Anonymous doesn’t take with everyone! Regarding those who it does -we are so fortunate!
Don’t get caught up in the writing itself -get caught up in the concept; the essence of!
Can we eventually [actually] aspire to the words which flow from my mouths?
The quality of our lives is directly proportional to the quality of our relationship!
NEVER UNDERESTIMATE the power, the impact the world has on a human-being!
Approoriate and inappropriate [levels of] FEAR!
After some time in AA, having worked the steps… they manage to stay sober with a minimum of contact with the program thereafter -until something formidable appears on the horizon!
No body gets drunk sitting on “the couch” thinking about it! Nor stay sober! 🤷♂️ It took a lot of time and effort to get sick -THINK ABOUT IT! 8 HOURS A DAY IN SOME INSTANCES, 7 DAYS A WEEK…
There’s a difference between “the rush” of getting high and that which we find in recovery -some people never make “the transition”.
FACEBOOK “If you’re unwilling to pay for it at that price, they can’t sell it at that price! THINK ABOUT IT! Pricing today is largely based upon a group of individuals willing to pay the price or desperate to pay the price with little or no consideration for those who cannot or will not. It’s largely based on a certain group’s utter lack of concern for their fellow human beings.”
Help me to be open my GOD even when I am not where you reside specifically. Even when I am not actively pursuing a relationship with YOU!
FACEBOOK “When the public is ripe; it’s only a matter of time before they starts charging for returns. You let these companies get away with it and they’ll try it.”
Most human beings should either have a sign or a sticker that says “Handle with care” or “Handle with caution”.
Oftentimes we ask without knowing, understanding, fully comprehending…
When stinking-thinking comes a calling -pray for others!
Turn it around and see how it flies – For example, today my girlfriend’s best friend walked up to the car and I said her name followed by darling with a French-intoned accent. Perfectly innocent. But when you picture a friend of mine, a man walking up to the car and my girlfriend saying it to him the same thing -it doesn’t fly with me. So you see, this is one way we can check ourselves. Check ourselves by using the same rule of thumb on others as ourselves; ourselves as with others. I don’t mean to control others -I mean to measure our own conduct I guess. Besides, one of the things that makes our relationship with our partner so special is the unique traits we display with them and them alone -and no one else. You want your partner to feel special, to feel elite don’t you?
Protect your mind even from filthy-truths!
When the savage in us is appeased -it no longer acts savagely. That was the case with Ana! You can appease your savage or you can conquer it! In our relationship it was appeased -not conquered! Lulled rather than confronted -hence, the problems in my new relationship where the savage is not being lulled but neglected.
What is the best use of his time romantic endeavor? It’s a valid question!
So which are the public more inclined towards… A company with a reliable history that sells mediocre quality or an individual with no history selling high quality?
The teaching approach in this country and throughout history is designed to do what with regard 2 up-and-coming generations? It’s not designed to f*** Foster people who dominate. Man tries to avoid such thing. But isn’t a top notch education rendering someone that capability? Education and character!
Awareness is a double-edged sword man has always been vulnerable too. Being made aware of the tree of knowledge! We have the ability to bring awareness to one another. Most of us do not have adequate knowledge or understanding of the impact of even our own! Adequate restraint either! It only took one generation to screw up. Some people are a real champion for mankind. Do you think the world of us. But is it misplaced?
Some people have an iron will and a sensible mind! Most of us are lucky to have one or the other in this day and age. Think about it! If you have a sensible mind but you don’t have an iron wheel and you’re prone to non-sensible thoughts [temptations] from time to time… If you have an iron will but you don’t have sensible thoughts…
FACEBOOK “If you can get killer abs without doing any work -what’s the point? If you can lose weight without doing any work -what’s the point? Many people who don’t have these problems take these questions for granted.”
What is your priority in life? What do your choices indicate? Actions & Attitudes indicate?
The closer I am to GOD; the more I have to contribute to life!
Alcoholics, and humans in general; DON’T GENERALLY DEAL WELL WITH LONG-TERM PAIN!
The one with the least amount of toys; who can be happy -WINS! The less I can rely on, THE FREER I AM! In fact, the only thing I can think of to truly rely upon that grants me MORE FREEDOM IS -GOD!!!!!!!
The simpler MY LIFE; the fewer opportunities my ALCOHOLISM has to roam!
The secret to telling the truth is; DON’T DO ANYTHING YOU HAVE TO HIDE OR BE ASHAMED OF! LIVE YOUR LIFE PRIVATELY -THE SAME WAY YOU LIVE IT PUBLICLY!
“When you’ve crossed certain lines in your life it’s very difficult to reassert those lines. For example, if you have a tendency towards excess or towards promoscuity…”
Relationships are a funny thing with we humans – Sometimes 1 thing can bring it to a halt. Sometimes 1 thing can bring it crashing down. Sometimes 1 thing can cause it to go out with a whimper!
Why get angry at GOD; it’s either not HIS fault; or HE knows what HE’S doing! 🤷♀️🙏🏻🤷♂️ God either IS or HE isn’t!
The 2 worst and best things of partner can say to you:
▪︎ I’m no longer in love with you or you’re not good enough for me
▪︎ I don’t feel I’m good enough for you I don’t feel I’m good enough for you.
One empowers you and the other 1 takes away your power!
When you’re worried about someone else with your partner -it’s not jealousy. Maybe insecurity. Maybe suspicion.
FACEBOOK “If you are concerned about infidelity on the part of your partner then pushing them away only increases the odds while drawing them closer decreases the odds-it’s amazing how we push people away and increase yards of infidelity while being so worried about it rather than decrease in the odds by drawing them closer with behaviors that make them want to be with us not with someone else. That’s one of the irrational things about human beings!”
There was a sharp decline, albeit a small one, when AA came on the scene!
Some people are highly aware, but only with regards to their own welfare!
God is most present In the now!
FACEBOOK “The more I practice staying in the now the sharperoy will be when a major now moment arises!”
BLESSED ARE those with the power to kill, steel, and destroy; WHO do not!
You make plans, but yet you realize there is a distinct possibility they will never come to fruition; You leave the possibility of GOD’S-plan open; That is what is formally called -Not being a fool! MY DAD HAD NO USE FOR… SO WAS HE A FOOL????? He didn’t think so!!!!!🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️
I’m not responsible for my “DISEASE” WRONG!!!! BILL W. STATES IN THE FIRST STEP ..
Alcoholics are CUNNING, BAFFLING, AND POWERFUL!
Ask most people in prison and they will tell you they’re pretty good people
I never got drunk “thinking about it”! I never stayed sober “thinking about it”!
It’s one thing to do a kind act [hard enough]; another to give credit where credit is due! 🤷♂️🤷♀️
Corellations
Man is slow
Everything is an opportunity to grow in the likeness of your CREATOR!
Some things are more important than money -but not to every man! Some men don’t care about anything but “GETTING PAID”!
I’m not responsible for being an Alcoholic… but in the 1st step…
What things fall into the category of:
Needs to be discussed or addressed ____________________________________________________________
Doesn’t need to be discussed or addressed
AA is for people who have lost the unconscious ability to have a conscious contact with GOD.
Some people struggle with, have a problem with being happy; so, 🤔 it only stands to reason some people struggle with, have a problem with being unhappy. Yin-Yang! Everything contains it’s opposite! So what other opposites are there of interest?
It’s not the person who gets up earliest in the morning who has the most sobriety -it’s the one who has the most GOD in them who has the most sobriety!
100% and 0% in nature, very, very interesting 🤔
“V” & “M”eter, humans are like a vehicle [vector] and a meter
● STAY IN THE NOW*
● LIVE RIGHT*
● HELP OTHERS*
● PRAYER & MEDITATION
*Best way to get GOD in you!
You can kind of tell the discrepancy between GOD’S plan for us and our plan for us -BY OUR LEVEL OF FRUSTRATION & DISAPPOINTMENT! OUR LACK OF FAITH; OUR LOSS OF FAITH! 🤷♂️🙏🏻🤷♀️
Maybe GOD is in the past present and the future -probably; But HE is not in my self-centered-mind while obsessing over the past or the future in an attempt to “BLOCK OUT THE PRESENT” and as a consequence of… BLOCKING HIM OUT AS WELL? Unless of course I am attempting to block HIM out as well!
I remember going to a restaurant with my girlfriend and splitting a large plate of food -and then telling us they were gon to charge us $4 extra. See what I mean about Corporate America thinking WE NEED THEM! Whoever needs who is the one who doesn’t get to take liberties…
If you are to be so-inclined as to act on those horrible thoughts then they’re probably your thoughts. But if you’re not so-inclined to act on those thoughts then we’re probably not your thoughts!
Whenever you have unsettling thoughts, pray for the salvation and protection and welfare of others.
I think I are more appealing when I am coming from my soul than from my brain. I think that when I’m focused in the moment my soul is more inclined to come out later than my brain. But when I am not focused in the moment and my mind is racing to the past or to the future or to some problem that hasn’t yet materialized.. Then I am more apt to approach life later on from my brain. The more free I am from.. The more inclined I am to be in touch with GOD… and the more inclined my soul is to radiate outwardly versus my brain.
Humility vs Ego. Disappointment, sadness, grief [humility and faith, strength, confidence] vs fear [lack of faith, lack of humility, lack of strength (power), confidence].
It’s better to come from the soul than from the mind when dealing with others.
When companies no longer want to take responsibility -it’s an incredible fact that the public should not stand for.
You ordinarily have certain interactions with people. A normal part of your friendship or relationship. But person “A” wants to continue those certain interactions without the normal amount of time spent in friendship… by person “B”… From the perspective of a person B, person “A” could look like they are trying to exploit or use them. But is it person “A’s” problem that person “B” no longer wants to invest the time?
After you defeat someone and begin playing up the tremendous skill and abilities.. You are you really complimenting?
Who’s placing who 1st? Corporate America used to place the customer 1st -now it’s not. This is very telling. If you’re not going by principles, you’re going by power. Principles tend to offset power!
Watch when missing a meeting becomes one day, then 2, then 3, then a week…
If relationships are supposed to be found on a language of the hear to come and tell me why so many bear and eerie physical resemblance to one another? Why aren’t there more relationships where the physical is less of a resemblance in the language of the heart is more of a resemblance?
People who don’t know what they’re doing or what they’re feeling can be such a pain i* t** a**.
Some people find great comfort in other human beings while others find none whatsoever -received none whatsoever.Others received nothing but grief. Is this the beauty of our diversity as human beings? And some ways we shouldn’t be diverse at all But man loves his diversity and his freedom to choose to be as such -and it sucks sometimes! The 2 things I see man most consistent ant are retaliation when his eagle has been bruised and collecting a debt. Real winners huh All involving self!
Some people are willing to put in the effort but don’t know what they’re doing. Some people know what they’re doing but are unwilling to put in the effort.
You can always tell when someone is lying to you somewhere somehow… because I always tell you what you want to hear! Not even GOD can make that claim!
We’re all weak in one area or another; so next time you are in the presence of… someone weak… think! think! think!
Whenever we are in a difficult situation, most of us feel strained; when we see someone else in a difficult situation of a similar nature, some of us have no empathy whatsoever; are even cold, or callous, or ruthlessly critical!
The repercussions for even a tiny increase in dishonest people in a society is huge!
I used to be worried about myself and what I was going to get into next… and about the worlds…. Now I’m only worried about the worlds.
Some people’s relationships are like a drug. They need continual doses of such things as reassurance.
Sometimes I think I say things negative because I no longer can think of anything positive to say
I don’t just have to worry about other people; I must remain continually vigilant with regard to myself and my ownmotives, my own degree of hunger and twistedness!
The age difference and money difference: She has opted to forego not one; but both! ☺!EVERYTHING IS JUST FINE!☺ACCEPTANCE
