LIGHTING THE DARK PAST


 

LIGHTING THE DARK PAST

 

Cling to the thought that, in God’s hands,

the dark past is the greatest possession you have-

the key to life and happiness for others.

With it you can avert misery and death for them.

Alcoholics Anonymous pg. 124

 

No longer is my past an autobiography;

it is a reference book to be taken down,

opened and shared.

Today as I report for duty,

the most wonderful picture comes through.

For, though this day be dark-as some days must be-

the stars will shine even brighter later.

My witness that they do shine

will be called for in the very near future.

All my past will this day be a part of me,

because it is the key, not the lock.
