An inspiring book, a caring friend, a moment of silence -- all can offer the guidance we seek.
We are learning to seek guidance on how to handle the serious circumstances of our lives. We used to feel we had to figure out everything for ourselves. What a gift it is to seek suggestions from friends we can trust. And hearing others tell how a line in a book gave them a needed answer has become a valuable tool too.
Relying on the silence for our answers, we are less certain at first. We can't always tell if it's our ego directing us rather than our Higher Power. The important thing is that we are looking for help. We are no longer blocked by our need to be self-reliant in all matters.
Guidance is always available. We simply have to know where to look and be willing to hear.
I will look at my problems today as opportunities for intimacy with other people. Problems will free me from isolation.

I feel we will not die alone because we are not losers. We have found this program and it works, if you work it, and there's the clue (if you work it). We just can't sit back and expect everything to be handed to us - if we want it bad enough, we will work for it. We are all winners here. BUT YOU HAVE TO WANT IT!
Later - Jeannie
