    Prompt: "Use this opening as inspiration.for your blog post... these.little known life hacks have made my life easier."The life hack that has made my life much easier, aside from my faith in Jesus Christ, has been a quote on page 417 of the Big Book. (1) It says “And acceptance is the answer to all my problems today. When I am disturbed it is because I find some person, place, thing, or situation-some fact of life-unacceptable to me, and I can find no serenity until I accept that person, place, thing, or situation as being exactly the way it is suppose to be at this moment.”  "Prompt: Captain Kirk and I were space trucking through the galaxy and found the planet:

I chose to write on the first quote I came to which was "There is no reason today cannot be the best day of my life." I agree 100%. I believe life is exactly what we make it. If we want to be miserable we can be miserable. On the other hand, we can choose to have a positive attitude and even the bad things can be tolerable. I recently had a swollen kidney. I was hospitalized because my kidney was about to rupture. The nurses were so proud of me there. They kept asking why I wasn't complaining and moaning about the pain.

I told her I was okay because the pain was what it was. They did keep it under control but even had they not my answer would have been the same. It hurt! Yes, the pain was almost unbearable.

I guess I probably should have clarified that early church history means 200AD and later.      1. William Wilson, Alcoholics Anonymous, (New York, NY.: Alcoholics Anonymous World Services), 2001 |
