Re: [chicago alanon] (unknown)

Hi Maura..so glad you find the program helpful...it
has helped me so much and I must say it is the best
thing I have ever done for myself! I find that if I
keep going to meetings,reading the literature and
talking to others in the program while working the
steps it helps me to find serenity and keeps me
focused on myself and today...I have a tendency to
think about the past and the future and I know that we
really only have this moment and how it unfolds has
alot to do with my attitude...so hope to see you
around in the meetings and good luck to you...hang in
there and you will know your progress one day at a
time!
