This morning was glorious as I took a sunrise run. The end of my run is in a field with an old trail through it. There are wild flowers in bloom there now. I would imagine by this time next year, there will be a road and houses where the flowers now bloom. (Which reminds me of a Talking Heads Song.)Yesterday the meeting was great. A relatively new guy chaired and actually had a topic! He wanted to hear about people's experience with the 4th step. I love those meetings. 4th Step and 9th Step meetings tend to silence the people who usually talk a lot. And we get to hear about recovery from people who are actually doing the deal.
And what a deal it is! I think I shall try it for another day, and I hope you do too!

Happy Thursday!
Ditto on the 4th step and talkers. Nothing can clear the room quicker than the request for a description of doing 4th step work. And there can be no bull in that. Those who have done it know. The rest cannot hide. These are always great meetings. Have a wonderful day. J.
Here's to doing the deal and getting the results.
Blessings and aloha...
Oh, that "big" NINTH Step! I use that a lot--maybe less than years ago, but, OH! what a relief it is!
And the Fourth Step--that's when the peeps go in the other room for fresh coffee and pastry--then outside to smoke.
Have a GREAT Thursday!
I know just what you mean!!!
About people hushing.
I love topic meetings, but Im not so keen on the mayo and bacon. Still it takes all sorts to make the world go around
Beautiful picture! I hope houses don't take the flower's place. They did that by my house. There was a beautiful field of huge sunflowers that they mowed down to build a shopping center. It was tragic!
We had the fourth step as a topic last week as well. Lots of people shared, even those not doing the step. Interesting stuff to hear.
