Home

Home from our overnight trip, and I'm too tired to do much writing, but I like this, from today's page (110) in the ODAT:

"Al-Anon is for people - people who have a problem they want to solve by sharing their experiences, strengths and hopes with other people. The more varied the experience, the greater the strength and hope."

That's 12-step - each of us, regardless of our place in society, has equal value inside the meeting rooms. Any one of us, may make the one comment which resonates with a desperate member of the group, as the helpful thought he or she can cling to, in the week to come.

If we keep an open mind, we will find help.
