Ye, 2005 saw me getting divorced at last,,,,,in hindsight ill say that was perfect !!!!
Not cause of the marriage,,, that was mad !!!
But cause we had a lovely baby girl,,, she turned me around,,, Im committed and responsible in her context.
The first time in my life that I really cared for another human being at a totally" nonexpecting "level !!!
Its the first time in my life I actually experienced unconditional love, both for and from my baby !!!
Thank God the judge who awarded the divorce, saw me good enough to be granted complete custody of my baby,,, all of 10 now.
This is very rare in India,, where usually the woman automatically gets to keep the children till the children are old enough to decide !!!
This is another Miracle ive had in Recovery the NA WAY !!!
My a feeling young 44 year old male,, recovering addict,, is given custody of my child,, even though she was a minor,, and more miraclously so as shes a girl child !!!
The Power of Prayer and Meditation the NA WAY IS incredible,, but TRUE !!!

Congratulations on all of the gifts in your life. BTW, a friend of mine tells a story about the first time he read the first step, he read that his wife had become unmanageable. Happy holidays, Jaime
Thanks Jaime,, God Bless you,, Im having a wonderful time playing my saxophone in a hotel here,,,,
this time of year gets me closer to yu al for obvious reasons ,,,
the revellery , tomfoolery and worst of all the drunkenness that happens in the name of celebration is a thing of the past for me,,
God willing ill never have to deal with that again ever,,
in recovery i learnt never to be in anyplace or situation purely for the reason of vicarious pleasure,,,
in fact this Xmas felt a whole lot more spiritual and Gods also been blessing me with better work conditions and yes,, the bread scenes getting better and better !!!
Surely one of my strongest resolutions for the New Year will be to walk at least a mile a day for a start,, continously, no matter how else I feel about it on any particular day!!
My dear girl will be halping pa lose that tummy and win the battle of the bulge !!!
ha,ha, !
Bless you and hugs from the other side of the globe,,,KEEP COMING BACK !!!!
