Now I can articulate what problems are from my illnesses,and not my drinking.

Good job!!! BF
"The battle ground is in the mind." This! Yes!! Precisely.

"Now that thought to [whatever] has starved to death,
and it's left behind in the past, and gone."

And you get into the presence of Now sans all that struggle and grasping and aversion.

You sure can articulate it very clearly! You've got a strength of clarity from all that mental muscle you've been cultivating by mindfully choosing. One moment at a time, one minute at a time. Bravo.

And thanks to all for your encouragement here in this neighborhood. Always nice to stroll through to see how you fine folks are doing.

Best,
Theta
