Honest Relationships...
"One of the most profound changes in our lives is in the realm of personal relationships."
Basic Text, p.57
Recovery gives many of us relationships that are closer and more intimate than any we've had before. As time passes, we find ourselves gravitating toward those who eventually become our friends, our sponsor, and our partners in life. Shared laughter, tears, and struggles bring shared respect and lasting empathy.
What, then, do we do when we find that we don't agree with our friends on everything? We may discover that we don't share the same taste in music as our dearest friend, or that we don't agree with our spouse about how the furniture should be arranged, or even find ourselves voting differently than our sponsor at a service committee meeting. Does conflict mean that the friendship, the marriage, or the sponsorship is over? No!
These types of conflict are not only to be expected in any long-lasting relationship but are actually an indication that both people are emotionally healthy and honest individuals. In any relationship where both people agree on absolutely everything, chances are that only one person is doing the thinking. If we sacrifice our honesty and integrity to avoid conflicts or disagreements, we give away the best of what we bring to our relationships. We experience the full measure of partnership with another human being when we are fully honest.

Happy Birthday Queen!
Help me wish this cowgirl a very happy birthday on her special day today!
I remember when she would play with me in the sandbox when I needed someone to talk to and play with. Humans just don't land here with a more pure and sweet spirit as this one right here!
Happy Birthday Aunt Deb!

Help me wish one of the most beautiful spirits to ever land on this planet a very very happy 80th birthday!
During my darkest days on this planet, caught up in the grips of active addiction, she never turned her back on me, never spoke a negative word about me, only these words proceeded from her mouth when it came to me and my dilemma , "Jesus is the answer". Love this Queen!
