Gratitude for Connection.
In a couple of hours I’m going up to the clubhouse so that I can meet virtually with a sponsee. That’s AA-speak for one person helping another. The internet connectivity there is superb, and the hassle of getting dressed and … Continue reading

Give it up (aka, Let Go and Let God)
