Christmas Cardinal.jpg

Beauty in a bush.  We have a good number of Cardinals around here this year.

A nice quiet sort of day, some time with Hollie (not unusual), and some quiet time too.  No smoking here today and I'm grateful for that and for all of you!

Becoming patient

Let us not rush and demand perfection all at once; it would only blind us. If we are impatient, it is impossible to work a daily program; but if we are patient, we can learn to see our daily opportunities for growth.

We can’t develop a new relationship with our Higher Power overnight. It is worth waiting for, striving for. Let us not go too fast but simply count each day as an opportunity.

Am I learning patience?

I quit on October 25, 2013, it was the best decision I ever made (or, one of them). I smoked for over 50 years and quit Cold Turkey. My most useful tool is gratitude, you can borrow some from me.
