As the joke goes, “Who would listen to a drunk talking to themself?” A few too many Thanksgiving Days, I would end up drinking too much and then say the next day, “I should give up drinking.” I did not listen to myself, since I was a drunk talking to myself. But now I am enjoying a sober Thanksgiving Day today. I drink Martinelli’s Cider on this special day. How did this happen? I stopped listening to myself, and began to listen to others who were enjoying truly Happy Thanksgivings on a daily basis. I never got anywhere in my resolutions simply by listening to myself. Alone, I am delusional. I look for others who are doing what I say I want to do, the winners. I call it “Group Grace.” Happy Thanksgiving.
