The material presented
here is not Al-Anon Conference Approved Literature. It is a method
to exchange
information, ideas, feelings, problems and solutions on a personal
level.
For Monday, 9/27, the writer reflects upon if only they could know whats to come, have infinite wisdom, and the knowledge of how to spend each moment.But in meetings they are reminded we can only work with what we have today. And perhaps it is better off not knowing, because our focus would be trying to outrun the painful experiences. We would miss out on the many gifts life has to offer. We need to trust our HP to lead us through whatever life brings.
Reminder: Itll shine when it shines.

I can remember in my younger years, wishing I could know the future. I had an 8 ball that would give answers to questions upon shaking it. Life was so painful, I thought it could be better if I knew what was around the corner. Well actually, life still has many painful parts. But it is from this program that I am better able to cope with everything, and enjoy a flower, a song, a chipmunk running across my deck. I think I agree it is better off not to know the future. Let me strive to have the best day I can, each and every day.
Thank you Lyne for your share... just what I needed to read this Monday!!
