The Book


I rarely post, but thought I would do so today to encourage anyone who has not yet gotten the book "Getting Them Sober" to get it. 

I am close to my divorce being finalized.  I was stewing about something last night.  The book title popped into my brain and I went in search for it.  I opened the book and my attention focused on the middle paragraph which addressed exactly what I was driving myself crazy over!  It was "eerie" but not.  I do believe that we are guided if we allow ourselves to be. 

I had not read that book in 3 years.  I had purchased it when I went to live in an apartment for 8 months.  Then I return to try even harder to make it work.  After nearly 3 years of trying extra hard, I filed for divorce.

I'm not promoting divorce!  However, I'm promoting the book.  Perhaps it will prevent a divorce.  As I read it now, I see what the author is saying on a much deeper level.  It gives me so much peace.

I hope it will give you peace, too.
