Daily Reprieve

In my 3rd step prayer, I told my Higher Power that I had given up the “right to argue,” that I just needed to live.  I guess it is progress, not perfection.  Humility protects me from terminal uniqueness.  Humility gives me the opportunity to listen long enough to gain understanding.  Humility invites me into the sanctuary of patience. 

Obviously, I had a good meeting tonight.  I went out with them afterwards.  I wondered why I ever doubted the sincerity of those I have heard share. 

Then I remember that my disease is always looking for an opportunity to divide and conquer, to isolate me and target me for destruction. 

Got to get some sleep.
