Wed Night AA: Speaker Meeting

Hi, I hope everyone had as great an Easter week as I did!! Just to remind everyone this Wednesday night is a  Speaker meeting  so no reading is required. I spent a couple of days getting to know Nicaragua and it's people and it was very interesting. I saw some beautiful things but I also saw some things that made me really sad. It's so easy to take the little things for granted like being able to read & write and putting food in your belly. I came back with a renewed sense of gratitude for living in Costa Rica and the opportunities ordinary citizens here have to make a living regardless of political or social affiliation. Oh sure, this ain't no Utopia... but neither is anywhere else. We've got our cliques and our issues just like anyone else but when all is said and done... Life in Costa Rica is Good!! Happy 24hrs, David t.

Jim's Story p232-245

Good Morning everyone, ¡¡Feliz 15 de Septiembre!! & Shana Tova!! In case any of you folks are wondering why everything is closed today, Costa Rica is celebrating their Independence Day today (our 4th of July if you will). September 15, 1821 was the day the Spanish withdrew their dominion over Central America and most Central American countries celebrate today as their independence day.  Additionally, today is the last day Rosh Hashanna, the Jewish New Year, is officially celebrated. May 5776 be a sweet and prosperous new year for all!!     In any case, I'm a bit short on time as I'm heading out to meet my  religious obligations . Just wanted to drop everyone a line and remind you this Wedneday night we will be reading  Jim's Story p232-245. Happy 24hrs, David t. 2015 Meeting Dates 09/24/14  Speaker Meeting <Larry H> 10/29/14 Speaker Meeting <David t> 11/26/14 Speaker Meeting <Roy M> -->Re...

Tradition FIVE pgs.150-154

Hello everyone, We've been having a good steady turn out at the meetings and the discussions have been excellent as always. This week we are going over TRADITION FIVE, pgs.150-154. (super long chapter). Its a shame La SELE lost. However, even in their defeat they brought honor to this tiny country of 4.8 million people. Step 10 pg93: "Even when we have tried hard and failed, we may chalk that up as one of the greatest credits of all." Progress, not perfection... Look forward to seeing everyone!       Best Regards, David t.
