AA ‘Big Book’ – Quote
When we became alcoholics, crushed by a self-imposed crisis we could not postpone or evade, we had to fearlessly face the proposition that either God is everything or else He is nothing. God either is, or He isn’t. What was our choice to be? – Pg. 53 – We Agnostics
Hour To Hour – Book – Quote
We have been known to think that dishonesty with others was OK as long as it didn’t ‘hurt’ them. We really don’t know what will hurt another or not. Being dishonest with other people deprives them of the information they need to run their own lives.
Honesty is honesty. Let me understand that ‘little’ dishonesties are a disservice to others as well as myself.
I Will Be Me
I will be me, today. One thing I never seem to do well at, is trying to be someone else. I can imitate and learn from others, but I cannot be them. Only they know how to do that, it’s a natural outgrowth of all that they have experienced in life, of all they are. That’s the bad news. The good news is no one can be me as well as me. Being me builds on who I already am. It’s exercise for my personality and my spirit. If I allow myself to actualize my own unique gifts and visions they will have originality to them, a freshness.
I am a better me than anyone else can be

Everybody makes mistakes. Fools repeat them, the weak excuse them, only the wise admit and profit from them.
If I really want to find a solution to my current quandary, I will. If not, I will find an excuse.
