Last year in the summer of ’11 I had one of the best seasons of my life despite a deeply controversial personal life. Now that the summer of ‘12 has come and gone and fall is upon us I am determined to make it the best season of my 61 years. I often say the stick is getting shorter but with a rigorous exercise schedule and more attention paid to my diet I am determined to choke up on the bat and make contact with all the days my Higher Power chooses to bestow on me.
A friend suggested recently that I should live everyday as if it was my last and although I have heard this mantra before especially in AA I am taking it more to heart now than ever before. The only reason we don’t live this way is because we think we have all the time in the world. Of course we don’t and we only have today and if I keep this in mind even for part of each day I will avoid more chaos and sleep like a baby. I don’t know what’s in store I just hope I can make a difference starting with the Fall of ’12.
Each day is a new beginning. You have touched the lives of so many. The future is a time to
