Loosid Sober Tip of the Day February 27

Do you want to be right, or do you want to be free?

In recovery, we often hear the words irritable, restless and discontent. One of the biggest blockages that keeps us in this state is holding onto past resentments or ‘justified anger.’

The problem is, until you can release the resentment, you will never be free. Justified or not.

Resentment is very much like you drinking the poison and waiting for the other party to suffer.

Letting go of your resentment is the key to your freedom.

Will you have to do some work to get there? Absolutely. There are is a spiritual path waiting for you to help to get you to the other side.

There is no value in being right at the expense of your freedom.

Choose to be free today. Why? Because you deserve it.

So isn’t it normal to be restless, irritable or discontent sometimes. I have a house guest, my son. for 3 weeks. I cannot tell him 3 weeks is too long. So I’m sucking it up. Meetings help. Noticing Gods sunrise was cool. Someone is coming to clean the house, my retirement gift to myself. The goal is not the eradication of restlessness, irritability or discontentedness. Isn’t the goal just learning to deal with it from time to time. All 3 words mean the same thing.
