We can be alone at perfect peace and ease. ~ Alcoholics Anonymous, 4th Edition (Kindle Location 1168)

Alone. Tolerable with something to do…
even if it’s no longer food, creating the fog.
Alone with obsessions…computer games,
knitting, reading, research, cleaning, sorting…
Alone without obsessions, at least diversion ones,
but with the thoughts, the feelings, the guilt,
the shame, the fears, the hatred, the resentments…
Alone at perfect peace and ease when all those things,
those thoughts, have been set at peace. Alone
serenely, with our higher power, with our thoughts,
with our love, with our recovery. Ahhhhh!!!
