Loosid Sober Tip of the Day August 5

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.

Exactly what I needed to hear !

A clean clear sober cup of water is always delicious. Thank goodness for this app

Amen. Gotta stay away from th negativity and dirty water

Yep, most of them passed away and a few got sober. Im lucky on the sobriety with no physical/organ issues and lingering mental health issues. Some I know are not the case

I can honestly say that I have emptied the dirty water out, only have a desire for clean water
Praise jesus for my sobriety

Great message! I enjoyed how to find others with clean cups. And when we speak with dignity and grace others well hear that and potentially follow suite. Also, we are then able to attract the same types of people both in sobriety and in the world. Cause for me it doesn’t matter if you drink or not if you carry yourself respectfully I can I turn allow you to be apart of my life. No judgments. Just peace within.

Love this so much :heart:

“For all of us only have 24hrs” LOVE IT!
