Normal

Normal changes.  To live life on life’s terms is to be able to accept new normals.  If we can accept these type of changes then we have a better chance to flourish on a different platform.  If you lose a body part, you live a new normal.  You are not diminished, but changed in your everyday way of life.  If you are getting sober in recovery you are living a new normal.  If you have a conversion experience of any sort, it will affect your daily life.  Some things are dropped and some new things are embraced.  We cannot grab onto the past and still live to our fullest in the present.

  3. A respected long timer, member in good standing shared something funny. Some Friends of Bill like to be contrary and what the long timer said "Normal is a setting on a washing machine. If you stay on this path, just be you and always pray. Limit the distractions"
