This morning when I woke up I was able to get straight through my prayers and meditation without struggle.

As the day began a good list of to-dos transpired for me. I was able to get them all done. I was able to take care of my financial tasks and able to do some things in prep for a big speaker meeting this weekend at the 12 step club.

This evening I got to go to a meeting. We spoke about selfishness and self-centeredness from page 62 in the Big Book. The discussions seemed to focus on 2 common threads, That our scope of vision is infinitesimal compared to God's, and that our vision is obscured by our old ideas and misdirected instincts. It dawns on me right now that rule 62 may allude to this page.

Afterward a friend spoke to me and asked about some used tires that I needed to sell. His tires are bald but he is getting larger rims in a couple of months so he needed to some tires to get by. He remembered that I had some tires for sale so we came to my house to look at them and they worked perfectly for him and he bought them. Thanks be to God for this good fortune.

When I got in I saw that my wife was staying up late to have another mom and her kids over for a movie. I complained about this on a school night and she got defensive and I retorted about this poor decision. This escalated until I machined gun out some truths about her lack of good judgment. Nothing I said was incorrect but I was very wrong because I was too enamored with being right and I was too inconsiderate in how I spoke to her. I repetitively prayed for God to save me from being angry and for me to accept that His will be done not mine. Her anger dissipated in a little while and we made nice before going to sleep. Now I just need to apologize to her.

Thanks be to God for this day.
