Let's all take a moment silence today and say a prayer for everyone who isn't with us today and keep the still suffering addict in out thoughts because "how are they to recover if we don't care?"

Good morning, friends! 🌄

Today, our U-Turn family pauses to honour those who made the ultimate sacrifice 🎖 and wishes everyone a happy and blessed Canada Day. 🇨🇦

In Newfoundland & Labrador, July 1 is a day of both remembrance and celebration.

🌺 Memorial Day — We honour the brave members of the Royal Newfoundland Regiment and all who gave their lives in service to our province.

On July 1, 1916, at the Battle of Beaumont-Hamel, of the approximately 800 Newfoundlanders who went into battle that morning, only 68 were able to answer the roll call the next day. More than 700 were killed, wounded, or reported missing.

We will remember them. ❤️

🍁 Canada Day — We also celebrate our nation, our people, and the hope we share for the future.

Today, we remember with gratitude. Today, we celebrate with pride.

Lest we forget.

Hi Friends;

Today June 10, 1935, is celebrated as the founding date of Alcoholics Anonymous.

91 years ago, Bill W. and Dr. Bob not only changed the lives of millions, but they saved the lives of millions. Alcoholics and loved ones alike. And their Twelve Step recovery program continues to save millions to this very day.
