Today I was grateful for my job and for my family.

My mom treated us to dinner with my neices. While I was there I saw someone from the fellowship sit down by himself to eat. I thought about how lucky I was to have a family and I thought how lonely it must be for him who does not. I finished my meal and I went over to see him. He invited me to sit down. He asked me where we know each other from and I told him how he made an impression on me in my early sobriety. He was from my old neighborhood and he knew some of the same people as me. As a matter of fact it was the family of the restaurant we were in that we had in common. I thought it was synchronous.

He was very thankful that I took the time to sit and talk. I was thankful he asked me to sit and talk.

Tonight I thought about staying home and doing things that need to be done here, but I went to our meeting. The topic was how we must persevere in or spiritual activities even though the family may sometimes feel like they should come first.

Put first things first.

I thought it was synchronous.
