Victory In Contentment

[MajestyJo]

This reminds me of a lady who had 10 years in recovery, who came up to me and said, "How can you be so content when you have so little." I had been one step off the streets living at the YWCA. Thanks to the program of AA, I was getting in touch with myself and I had a God in my life who I had reject many years ago. I didn't think He believed in me. When I got to AA, I found that it wasn't so.

This woman worked for the gov't, she was afraid she was going to lose her job and therefore, lose her house. To my way of thinking at the time, she had so much she could afford to lose a little bit and instead of grabbing and wanting more, she would have been happier sharing what she had, not with me but to give back what she had been so freely given.
