I’ve been dormant in recovery for too long. Life changes and ego takes ahold. I’m not as strong as I once was. I need to stay involved and giving back to the 12 steps that gave so much to me. If I’m not moving forward, I fear I’m moving backwards. 26 years clean and today, I’m looking for serenity. I’m working on getting a sponsor again, going to meetings at least three days a week. I’m ready to work the steps again. Being willing to do the same things that are recommended when we arrive, are the same things we need to reconnect and get to an even better place in life.

You are truly an inspiration. I appreciate you sharing this look into your sobriety journey. We keep eachother sober... Helping others stay sober keeps us sober... Again you are a rock star in my eyes. Cant wait to hear all the amazing things you encounter in this new spark in your journey.
As the philosophical fish dory says" just keep swimming."

I’m 3 years off the bottle, 5 years off chewing tobacco. What has helped me is every single morning I recite the serenity prayer. And then I go give a kiss on the cheek to my wife and my 3 kids. Looking at them (not saying any words) keeps me from wandering back to the bottle and the can. Keep working it; because you’re worth it!
