PROGRESSIVE GRATITUDE Gratitude should go forward, rather than backward. AS BILL SEES IT, p. 29
I am very grateful that my Higher Power has given me a second chance to live a worthwhile life. Through Alcoholics Anonymous, I have been restored to sanity. The promises are being fulfilled in my life. I am grateful to be free from the slavery of alcohol. I am grateful for peace of mind and the opportunity to grow, but my gratitude should go forward rather than backward. I cannot stay sober on yesterday's meetings or past Twelfth-Step calls; I need to put my gratitude into action today. Our co-founder said our gratitude can best be shown by carrying the message to others. Without action, my gratitude is just a pleasant emotion. I need to put it into action by working Step Twelve, by carrying the message and practicing the principles in all my affairs. I am grateful for the chance to carry the message today!

Given that I was born on a Friday the 13th, I'm not going to let a cult based fear of a number get in the way of having he correct date. :) Besides, later translation suggests that the mark of the beast is a different number than 666, and yet, the author of revelations was sorta stoned when he wrote it.
P.S. Joe Jared ("Taylor Jimenez"), nice job passing off the stalking and lying and defamation and harassment to YOUR CRIMINAL FRIEND, Kevin Filan: see 900 stalking spam posts by Kevin Filan (Joe Jared's good friend - who donated to Joe Jarad's lawyer fund):
This is just like the crap "Taylor Jimenez" (Joe Jared) did 2-3 times over as THE x-no-archive stalker just to Brad J . And he did the same thing to several other people in several other newsgroups - the x-no-archive stalker, Joe Jared ("Taylor Jimenez") is credited with 10,000 such posts !!!
