Loosid Sober Tip of the Day August 13

Emptying our cup.

One of the most important parts of recovery is to empty our old thoughts before we start on our journey.

We cannot start clean and see a clear path if we have beliefs on what we are supposed to do, for it is what we were doing that got us into trouble in the first place.

If we want a clean and clear glass of water, we cannot come in with a dirty cup of water. If we empty most of our cup but still leave a little dirty war inside, we will still have dirty water.

Make sure you surround yourself with people who have clean cups of water.

How do you know they have clean water? Connect with people who speak with grace and dignity. Look for those who match calamity with serenity. It is never about how much sober time they have, for all of us only have 24 hours.

Connect with those who have what you want… ON THE INSIDE.

Just for today, choose to empty your cup completely to let fresh clean water to take its place.

Absolutely love this ! I like the fact it is recognized that it’s not about how much sober time we have but it’s about our current relationship with our HP. I can be clean but living as a dry drunk. In that state I am in no condition to help anyone. It’s always about my current spiritual condition. This is the way of it ! One day at a time.

I like this one

I really needed this tip today because I've closed the door on all relationships that are unhealthy and interfering with my recovery and spirituality and found it basically left me in my home with just my two dog's...however I'm excited about a fresh start and new healthy relationships.
