Thanks Richard. My first thought this morning over the whole car mess was ok, what do I do when I'm resentful at someone? Pray for them. So the thought occured to me that the person who busted into my car might just be another alcoholic/addict looking for money for a fix. So I prayed that they find their way out of destruction. Suddenly I was able to see the gratitude in the whole situation, number one being that I didn't get drunk over it.

Perna yeah, good take on the whole higher power concept. Sometimes I just think my higher power is the part inside me that knows what the next right thing is. I love the freedom in being able to believe whatever I want.
