~~~A Thought From A Story Once Told~~~
a thought comes to mind it was like one of my very first ever speaker meetings to go to and for my HP is God so bear with me if I use the word God and if it makes anyone uncomfortable
But anyway this was during my very first time at like 19 trying to stay clean and sober it took 20 yrs to get 1 yr so guess what it didnt last but this story has
a lady named Connie got up to speak and she's talking about how we like to take control of thingsand she said being in the program is like being in a car with God only we are now in the passenger seat starting out we're riding along enjoying the ride, and what does an addict alky or kid do when they see buttons and levers...we push them! We want to know what they go to how they work why they are important if they are important So imagine we are on the 101 by the beach we found a button it releases the roof and it pops down and Gods ok with it He may even comment what a cool deal ridin convertible style oh yeah
Well shoot we just got a reaction from God so now we have pushed two buttons at once and God thinks its cool too!Wow My Minds just really blown best High ever w/out drugs or alcohol! So Thats not even enough we start looking at the gear shift and the gas pedals and the clutch and the brake and looking up The Mother of all Mothers the steering wheel this baby turns and we're still doing a nice cruise but cmon this babys got power!
so we start trying to help God steer cuz its a cool car oh man the hair blowing in the breeze
Nice sunshine lookin cool feelin cool got our shades on oh yeah we are cool! and then we start messing with all the controls turning the stereo up and finally we start pushing God out cuz we are gonna drive this baby ourself dont ya know it!wow we're cruising along we start thinking was it okay to just shove him out well ehh we'll be fine....
Five miles down the road we lose control we slip we slide the beautiful ride we had is gone we flip over engulfed in flames with the car if only we hadnt wanted control so bad if only we could be at peace being passenger but now the perfect car the perfect ride and the peace is gone and we're dead cuz we took control one more time Thanks for listening to this read or reading this read rather but as you see we have a choice to control or not control Live or die
