today I surely picked one of my favorites. The past few days have been a whirlwind. I presented a request at a big scary board meeting. The board approved my request to increase a service for women in recovery. I attended another meeting for 67th anniversary event. I attended two other special interest meetings yesterday that were important. Today I made another service commitment and attended two meetings. I am told by the Great Sponsor that this is the way to enlarging my spiritual life. My spiritual path is very important to me. With that said, I was looking forward to getting home tonight and just having some peace and quiet. My brain is in overdrive and it is exhausting. My daughter's at her Dad's and I had nothing planned (well almost nothing). This was my plan, my design for the evening and there wasn't a thought that a Divine Intervention was about to make an adjustment. Why would He? I know best!
I pull into my parking space and notice what I thought was my neighbors car, wasn't parked in their normal place. I thought, "Damn those new people who have their guests parking reserved spaces". I felt a resentment already brewing. I'm told that this is also a sign of my undergrowth. I jump to conclusions often. So when I walk up to my door, I see there are two identical cars. It wasn't my neighbors car at all. I have to look again because this is also the same car my Mom drives (who lives 1100 miles away). Nope! The plates were from out of state but but I couldn't see that name of the state. I figured it was a California plate. Looked like it. Heading toward my door, I hear my nickname. Only my family calls me this and it's been since the day I was born. Yeah, one of those. I look at the car again and it is my Mom. My Mom is here! My sister was able to keep this information a secret. I received a surprise today. My Mom is HERE!
I have to admit, of course I thought about that quiet time alone for a second. Then I thanked my Divine Power for giving me this gift today. You never know how many more your going to get, again that will be in His time too.
My favorite chocolate in the box? Well I have to say it's a toss up between a maple nut cream or a coconut centered dark chocolate.
Be Well
