FLASH FICTION FRIDAY 55
"GIVE THANKS IN ALL CIRCUMSTANCES"
1985: The frightened, broken woman heard the words, "she is a chronic alcoholic" reverberate around the treatment center conference room.
2008: She was on board the largest ship cruising the Caribbean enjoying every moment of the annual Alcoholics Anonymous gratitude cruise.
"In all circumstances, give thanks, for this is the will of God for you..." **

PG ~ You are an inspiration to those of us that have been broken and finding a new path. Well, at least to me anyway :-) Perhaps we'll meet on a cruise ~ or better yet, maybe when I'm back in SRQ in a few weeks I can take a drive down yonder and join you guys for a meeting. There's a thought.

A beautiful journey of the soul told in 55 words. What a testimony!
I'm cruising but not on such a large ship. I daresay that this is as much fun though.
