This was a first...
I chaired my first meeting tonight. It was a woman's meeting and a reading group (Living Sober). It was easy enough but it was weird to be asked.
There was a woman who was new to the group who was on her fifth day of sobriety. She was the last to share and expressed a lot of amazement over how much she got out of the meeting. I made a point of speaking with her after; I think we actually have a fair bit in common. I think she will return.
Today I am grateful for:
living sober today
people beginning to know me in the halls
feeling comfortable enough to reach out to a newcomer myself

Good job reaching out...it is always so weird at first for me, and then it gets easier. You are on a good strong bridge now baby!!
Paths crossed and it is not of any coincidence. An opportunity for spiritual growth was established and you accepted.
You walked thru many fears, I really enjoy reading about this. :)
A big smile came across my face as I read this post.
I'm grateful you chaired the meeting.
