¢ humility is a by-product of active recovery, that allows me ¢

to grow and develop in an atmosphere of freedom, at least that is what i will be adding my 2 cents about today. this is way late, as i have already ran, been to the bank and done a bunch of work and it is almost time for me to run and get some food.
i have one task on my desk that is keeping me here, and instead of watching paint dry, i am being productive. so that task is done and i have seen how early i need to get rolling on Sunday morning to get down to canon city.
be that as it may, there were a few themes that i heard and pondered as this morning slipped away from me. one i have written about before, namely recovery being its own reward. i like that thought and i keep it close to my heart as it seem to keep me in a state of active recovery. the other was the freedom i enjoy by ensuring i stay anonymous. i know that perhaps, if i was to shout it out to the entire world i might get kudos or strokes, however it is bad enough that i write this particular blog every day or so. i understand that i am breaking my anonymity by doing so, but in the din of all the websites out there, this little blog barely gets noticed, and for me that is a good thing, if i had hundreds or thousands of readers i might not be quite as open about what is going on, and i would certainly temper what i said by sticking to the party line, after all i am a reflection of my fellowship. being lost in the crowd, at least on the internet is a good thing. i can and do say what i want, i do my best to avoid saying where i belong and i am certain that i am maintaining some sort of anonymity. since i have come to understand that humility means being who i am, in all situations and accepting that person as he is, right here and right now, i can be free to say what i want. the really nice part, is that i have no political axes to grind and what my current socioeconomic status happens to be, is of no concern, when i sit down and pound this out of my head and into the world of bits and bytes.
i could go on, but instead i will end with this, today i am grateful that i have developed a habit that allows me to be free from the the roles that others and i myself expect me to fill. in this brief moment i am just another voice in the roar of the crowd and i like it like that. so off to lunch and then. into the final day of my week long project.
