Happy 85th Birthday my dear friend. Trust me on this. You wouldn’t like the world in 2020. You really didn’t miss much, taking the first fast train out in October 2014.
The other day I found one of your old AA talks. I know you tried to get rid of them before you died. But, I found one on a backup drive. You didn’t know about backup drives.
So, I listened to it. It wasn’t one of your best. You were in your “spiritual period”. Joel Goldsmith, I think it was. But, I was nudged by the bit about “thinking about doing the right thing wasn’t good enough”. Think I have been guilty of that I. I will work on good actions, not just good thoughts.
On the off chance, anyone wants to listen (55 minutes). This was October 6, 2004. Carlton’s sobriety date is Jan 5, 1973.
Gratitude
Yes, the missing bunny found her way back home.
I think I will just stop here for the day. Let Carlton enjoy his 85th. Tomorrow is soon enough to get back to coronavirus.
