G is for grateful. I have physical problems but I am sooooo freaking grateful that they can be solved with meds and time. I am grateful to be able to pass for normal sometimes. What a feeling that is!

Re: once more with enthusiasm! Gee, I guess no one is enthusiastic - no posts since the 18th ---- Hmmmmm guess everyone is meditating! LOL ( or they just don't like the letter K) K is for...... kindness. Both the kindness we give and the kindness we receive. And the kindness of my "new" Higher Power who is always there for me.

Thanks Lin for your kind words.
Ah the letter M. M is for a whole bunch of things.
Me Manipulation Maturity Meditation Memories Mistakes Motives Martyr
Sounds like my yesterday ! Me being manipulated, not knowing the motives. Thinking this trip was a mistake. Dragging up all sorts of memories. But being mature enough to hit my knees and meditate on it. Keeping a sane ME and not becoming a martyr.

R is for ...... REALITY.
Facing the world and ourselves as it really is, with the good and the bad. With the assets and the flaws. Coming out of that deep dark shell that we've been hidden away in for so long and seeing the Light.
