I've Got It, And I Give It to You
Dottie celebrated 12 years of sobriety this week at A.A. She has been an inspiration to me many times. She said Monday, "I'm supposed to give it away. I don't know what IT is or where IT is, so if I give IT away, it's an accident."
Your friends at your birthday answered your question. You have it. And you have given it to many. Elbert Hubbard wrote, "The love we give away is the only love we keep." Someone else once observed, "Kindness is difficult to give away because it keeps coming back."
In my mind, I can't give away sobriety if I don't have it to give. My purpose is to stay sober and share the gift of sobriety with others. That's why I write this blog.
I have IT. And I'm giving IT to you if you will take it.
