Good to see you back hope your trip went well and you are well too.
Lots going on not sure how much i'll be able to post now I have work and more side work coming up trying to get this business rolling, with or without a license i work , so far still no license not sure WHY.
Glad that you are getting work and more work, license or no license...
Sometimes, I have observed that my Higher Power provides and fulfils my needs and desires, but in His/Her own ways, not necessarily the way I see it or want it or expect it... and many of these times, in my waiting for my Higher Power to give me something in a way I might think it should be given, I miss seeing that my Higher Power has given or been giving what I asked for, but from a completely different and unexpected source altogether...
Surrendering the situation unconditionally and wholely, thru the Third Step, to the care of my Higher Power and seeking awareness of my Higher Power's will for me and then the strength to carry that out thru the Eleventh Step makes me live in the moment and to witness my Higher Power's ways of reaching out and providing for me, and to stay open-minded to even miraculous and unthought ways of the Divine, to be able to actually receive what my Higher Power gives...
But still, being an addict, I am stuck here many times, just like a meeting quote that goes, "God, I understand yes, I understand no, but I don't understand wait"
Vini, you have been a great inspiration for me in my daily recovery, the way you have come back, from despair and pain, to live life again by embracing it, it's all very infectious for me, and fills me with lots of strength and hope. Thanks my recovery brother, for sharing your recovery with me. I love you.

Thankyou Tahir I think I am lousing the focus lately due to uncontrolable circumstances, but hey i have to ask myself, am i ever really in control?
You made me go and reread the 3rd step and i'm glad you led me there thru what you've written, your always a great leader to the words I need to see and hear.
I am today, afraid but I AM NOT paralized like i used to be I know this is one more step I have to take in order to grow spiritually and it is a time for practicing spiritual principles.
The Department of Justice (FBI) has a hold on my records, they have for 3 months now this puts ahold on my contractors license. I am doing the slow footwork thru Beaurocracy and maybe even bigotry i'm not sure yet whats happening , i'm not getting much help with this.
I know this much my life doe's not depend on this license but my life does depend on how I deal with and treat this situation that much i'm sure of.
Not without great hessitation do i turn my will and life over to anyone or anything, but alas, I am powerless and I know and am sure my higher power will allow me what i can handle, it just may not be my time yet to handle this thing, and when i am honest with myself i know this is so, and that's ok theres time still later.
Thanks Tahir, with sissy tears in my eyes , thanks Brother.
