Yesterday I went to a speaker meeting where it was a honor and privilege to listen to a woman tell her story. Just when I think I had it so bad...jeesh. The anger and grief I felt was powerful. I wanted to kick that woman's father and mother's asses for hurting and failing to protect her. How moving to listen to this woman's honesty, compassion and forgiveness as she spoke of her recovery, the work its taken to get where she is. Lovely, absolutely lovely to behold. I thank my Higher Power for her. Wow. After the meeting Jean asked if I'd played my guitar. So we all ended up singing Hank William's "Your Cheating Heart". It was fun to hear our mixed voices.
Andie, one of my sisters in the program, sent me this picture and I just want to pass it on to you. I'm hoping you have a sweet, lovely day, look for the good and thank the Higher Power for the love so freely given to us all! Yeah!
