I don’t know what world you’re living in -but the world I’m living in is the same one described in The Bible and an alcoholic synonymous call economist-people are selfish.

When I 1st came into Alcoholics Anonymous nobody was walking up to me and shaking my hand and asking me out to coffee.. Then one day I decided to walk into a meeting and to go down the road and shake everybody’s hand everybody’s hand. I did that at several meetings in succession until I realized certain people weren’t interested in shaking my hand.. People I hardly knew, let alone ever did anything hurtful to.

Something dawned on me after several years in Alcoholics Anonymous, after several years of unhappiness “I think we’re all living in the same world, so why do some people seem happier than others?” A lot of it is the way you look at things. A lot of it has to do with the choices we make. And a lot of it has to do with “what we focus on, we give power to!”
