I am pleased to be able to post Friday's C2C reading and will most probably post Thursday
evenings so that it will be here for everyone on Friday morning. Been moving rather slowly
for the past 6 months and do not want to post late in the morning. So here is 5/27/2022!
Todays author tries to impress on the reader that if we do not get past those feelings of
disappointment and loss of hope, that we risk missing out on the good times that are
actually in front of us.
They go on to say that no one can be happy all the time, but that we deserve to appreciate
and experience all the happiness that our lives have to offer.

faith in their arrival and patience in my anticipation".~ Living with Sobriety
I can honestly say that when I learned to "Let Go and Let God" I was able to feel so much
more gratitude and from there I experienced so much more happiness and contentment.
There is no doubt that I falter from time to time, but am able to, within minutes, experience
the disappointment and then switch on the gratitude for what I have instead of what I do not
have and place my troubles in my HPs hands.My faith in my HP is so very important to me!!
How do you deal with your feelings of disappointment?

Thank you Debbie so much for taking Friday!! I always post Sunday night for my Monday service--no complaints yet!
I have to be honest and say I spent many years living in disappointment, lack of hope, fear, and despair, so much so, that I never felt happy or at peace--I was miserable 24/7. What a painful way to live, and I'm so grateful that has passed by. Years of therapy helped a bit, but it is these years I've spent in this program that have taught me a way to live that is so much more peaceful and satisfying. There is still pain and suffering at times, but I don't get stuck there. When I put one of my dogs down about a year a half ago, that took several months for me to recover. But I did! I still miss her in fact, but I'm able to love and appreciate the dog I do have. Always a grateful member.

Good afternoon
Sometimes I forget what it's like to just let go of all the problems of the world and have fun,laugh and smile.
