ME and the Boss

“A liar will not be believed, even when he speaks the truth.” ~ Aesop

Family, friends, acquaintances, employers and everyone

who has been lied to by a drunk will have a hard time ever

believing anything they may say.

Those who have been lied to may have become deaf, they

no longer want to hear the words, they want to see the actions.

Be patient, ten years of drunken lying will usually take

ten years of sober truth before one becomes believable.

Some may never want to believe you again.

Only you and your Higher Power know if what you speak

comes from a heart that is honest and true.

Happiness is knowing that you are believable.

Happiness is helping someone help themselves.

“It is not talking but walking that will bring us to heaven.”  ~ Matthew Henry

The story goes that Bill W. was out voted by the committee who

helped write the Big Book and therefore the word Utopia replaced

the word Heaven on page 16.

Bill noted that the good life is right here on Earth

for those who know sobriety.

Call the good life whatever you may, Heaven, Utopia, Eden,

or Jan-nah, however, you must know it is not the word but the

action that will have the greatest meaning.

Today, act kind, act loving, and act like the person the God of your

understanding wants you to act.

Happiness is making this life the best life.

Happiness is helping someone help themselves.
