Man's Best Friend? 04/09/2019

Oh my heck... The challenges I faced hiding my drinking!!! Including sweet Harley! Check out my newest blog.

It's been awhile but here's a new blog post!!!

Let Go and Let God.... Ever been told to "Let go and Let God"? What an annoying little phrase. I mean how do you exactly do that? When you are in the middle of chaos just to just throw up your hands and do nothing?

DUI in a Church Parking Lot....to Keys to the Church? 22/03/2019

Miracles happen!!!

DUI in a Church Parking Lot....to Keys to the Church? I'm sitting around the standard church folding table sitting in one of those sketchy brown folding chairs one night at a meeting. I'm sharing about when I used to drink. I would get ready for work, then pretend to go t...

"God" or "Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo" What is the Magic Word? 20/03/2019

"God" or "Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo" What is the Magic Word? Every week I went to sunday school as a child. And just like any other normal active child I seldom paid attention to the teacher and was often in my own little world. And as luck would have it, I would get called on t...

Or, "Everyone does it." But if we ar...

Today's Gift for 3/17/19 17/03/2019

Today's Gift for 3/17/19 We each are spinning our individual threads, lending texture, color, pattern, to the "big design" that is serving us all.

Today's Gift for 3/14/2019 14/03/2019

Today's Gift for 3/14/2019 Looking back to the codependent or addictive times in our lives, we see with the perfect vision of hindsight. It is both embarrassing and humorous to see how misguided and deluded we were then. Grandiose images of ourselves isolated us from those around us and cut us off from true friendships with o...
