Loosid Sober Tip of the Day February 17

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.

Very true.. I will do this!!:+1::+1:

Oh yes! Love it! I use to bring my dirty water everywhere I went… just spilling it on others. Taking some of their dirty water with me. What a weird way to live I did! :joy: today my cup has only natural spring water in it. It’s not full as I have lots more room to grow but it’s clean.
When we decide to under go a complete psychic change and are completely honest that’s when we have dumped out our cups of dirty water. Finding and doing a program will clean your cup. Learning and implementing new these new tools will fill your cup. As your cup fills, helping others will keep your full.
