Loosid Sober Tip of the Day August 19

Don’t let the gifts of recovery take you ot of recovery.

When entering recovery, if we have the willingness to do whatever it takes to get sober, we find ourselves ‘on fire’ with the program. This simply means we are reaping the rewards of working the program. Often, it’s because when we enter recovery, we had the gift of desperation.

As time passes, we start to build a beautiful life. Unfortunately, for many, life seems to get a bit too full to keep working the program. We cut back on meetings, we cut back on service, we stop reaching out to others and before you know it, we relapse and have no idea why.

Everything you have built has been a result of the spiritual program you have now pulled away from.

Always remember that the same things you had to do in your first days of recovery are the same things you need to do throughout your recovery.

If you feel you have fell victim to this, the great news is you can change right here. Right now.

How did this tip resonate with you? What are the most important things you have done that got you sober that you do every day to stay sober? There are many people in the Loosid community who need to hear what you have to say.

With Love, Loosid :pray::heart:

Love this, it’s a great reminder that the program is a spiritual Discipline..

Ahhhh the gift of desperation, love that because desperation leads to transformation. I was desperate when i entered program and now i am leading a beautiful full life with my HP. Need to stay spiritually fit. What do i do? I get up everyday and get on meetings, read, God journal, chat with sponsor at meetings and sometimes FTF. I have to connect with HP daily and work my program. So thankful for God leading me to recovery thru desperation. Everyday we live well we are well.

This resonated with me becuase this has happen to me a couple time life got to ful from work and just stuff but I’m grateful to say I finally realized two weeks ago almost three this is a life long journey not a once n a while thing… so grateful for realization
