Meeting scheduled in the alanon chat room at 9:00AM Eastern Standard Time
(I am willing & able to stay late, as we started late, for all who wish to share & listen :) )
Topics will be: “Trust”; Reading from March 27 ODAAT:
At times I go to Al-anon meeting in a captious, critical mood that I am not even aware of. By an odd coincidence, everybody happens to irritate me. This one talks too much – that one hasn’t enough tolerance for others – another has said or done something that I consider unkind. Could it be that my attitude is at fault? Let me go back in the Al-anon fundamentals. What am I looking for? Will I find it if I am only looking for flaws in others? I must remember that I am here for the purpose of improving myself and my way of life, and in every meeting there is some good to be gained, no matter what is said or done.
Today’s Reminder: I will guard against looking for flaws in others; I will try to see what is good in them. I go to Al-anon to learn, and every meeting is precious.
Quote: I have learned silence from the talkative; tolerance from the intolerant and kindness from the unkind. I should not be ungrateful to those teachers. - Kahlil Gibran: from Sand and Foam
