Being Groundless and Aware

Today, I really enjoyed the feeling of being groundless, awake, aware, some would say “enlightened”.  Some days, the intensity of that feeling is hard to take, similar in feeling to an intensely sunny day at this altitude (7,000 feet).  The fear associated with publishing my book has passed for now and I enjoyed connecting and interacting with several recovering people today.  One of the topics that came up in the groups I led today was “pride” and I have to admit that I am proud of what I do and who I am.  I also have to admit that it took a while to get here.
