...with what i have actually achieved in recovery, i am astounded. that is quite a statement. little did i ever dream that the family of someone who is not related to me, would actually want me to be part of their annual celebration. nor would i have ever believed that i would be a college graduate, a home owner, part of loving relationship or even do simple things like pay my taxes or show up for work, or even not use.
so yes i am living my dreams today, and on that note i will pack up my computer and head back north for service.

☯ The Tao that can be spoken is not the eternal Tao ☯
by Lao-Tse
Translated by James Legge
Book 2
1) When the Tao prevails in the world, they send back their swift
horses to (draw) the dung-carts. When the Tao is disregarded in the
world, the war-horses breed in the border lands.
