The Last Chance Texaco

cool. nice post. the devil is in the detail as they say..
the truth shall set you free. i work on the assumption that the more ? ‘free’ i am feeling, the closer i must be to the truth. you certainly sound less burdened than you did before and that can only be a good thing.

i have heard other long term sober people slag off those aa’s that maintain that participation is essential to bring about ‘gods’ help, on the basis that it ? disproves the unconditionality of ‘gods’ love. I confess their sloppy analysis annoys me. but its none of my buisness. The requirement for some type of ‘action’ to save oneself does not undermine ‘gods’ power or unconditionality, or anything else for that matter. it simply reflects the pattern of cause and effect.
what i mean is people MUCH more long term sober than you get their analysis/reasoning confused due to attachment to a fixed idea of what ‘god’ means, so good for you for rethinking this glitch.
its good to rethink former reasoning every now and again. its not sacrilegious to ‘think’! if used to good effect. the brain when used in the service of getting closer to the truth, (as opposed to getting our head stuck up our ass (!)), is actually rather a useful thing

beautiful chris. so beautiful. i am thrilled that you have found some peace and landed in a place you are.

the clarity of this post is stunning – really love the metaphor too!
Oops, should have mentioned good post! Waiting on your next one!
