Loosid Sober Tip of the Day Sep 09

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.

This makes a lot of sense. :heart: I definitely enjoy being around others who remind me of who I want to be :heart:

Pretty sure I was the dirty water in everyone else's cup

This tip resonates w me very much so today. I have been doing better than I ever have in my life. But hit that plateau. I needed change to move forward and I certainly got it. A 3 day suspension and a house full of angry females later w wrongful, hurtful, blameful judgements..... But if not for this, my water would've remained a little foggy, dirty for the time being until change happened. Today I move forward and am leaving this all behind me. Whether or not anyone else is able to move forward in the same way without these negative feelings and behaviors and attacks is up to them. I'm over it. And moving forward.
