Nor would I be sharing the wisdom I have learned from the many others I have come to know and cherish in the rooms of Al-Anon and AA. \u00a0I doubt not, at all, that I have been &#8220;called&#8221; to do exactly what I do.<\/p>\n<p>I am so grateful to all of you who have touched my life over these many years. \u00a0I believe that we met, either in the flesh, through an email, a book or on-line in one of my blogs, quite intentionally. \u00a0<strong>There are no accidents!<\/strong> \u00a0That was one of the first things I learned in the fellowship rooms and I was reassured of it in the small booklet: <em><strong>Acceptance<\/strong><\/em>, that was freely given to many of us by a sponsor or a friend when we first came into a recovery room. \u00a0Knowing that I have<strong> always<\/strong> been where God has needed me to be is so reassuring. \u00a0I&#8217;m convinced this fact of my life, and yours too, will never change. \u00a0Being able to count on something that has given me so much, knowing that this will always be the case, gives me quiet contentment. \u00a0What a blessing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am beginning a very new venture tonight. \u00a0It&#8217;s an on-line course based on my newest book, GETTING UNSTUCK.\u00a0 The link to the course is:\u00a0http:\/\/www.entheos.com\/academy\/courses\/Getting-Unstuck\u00a0should you have an interest in signing up. \u00a0It&#8217;s not too late!
