This little light of mine… I am going to let it

This little light of mine…
I am going to let it shine….

No matter what happens today, I will close out my first day of sobriety! I dont with creating excuses to drink and done letting the loneliness control me. I can’t force people to see or connect with me, however I can ensure it doesnt lead me to the bottle.

Thank you Beau! Strength and Fight is definitely something I will always bring, however these words of yours help recharge it. Thank you and WE got this!

Welcome Johnny. Is this your first day? Whether it’s your first first or your 100th first, we are glad you’re here. Poke around all the posts, and you can find lots you can relate to. Connections take a little time. Go slow on here, as you don’t know what demons others are facing. Plus, this is the internet so there are scammers and fake profiles to navigate thru. Be kind and patient, and let’s stay sober together

I am on day 1 again. Slow is definitely the speed I will be operating. I didn’t get here in a day and it will take more work to get away. I am well versed with fakes & scammers also, I’ll try not to have too much fun with them lol.

You got this! For me, hitting a lot of meetings every day really helped me. Surround yourself with positive people who are going through what you’re going through. You don’t have to be alone. :pray:

The meetings do a lot to get me in the right place! My hard part is I tend to get left to my own thoughts after and wish I could be a support network. Slow and steady though, right…

Heehee no little dance today but definitely sang it and will carry it with me throughout the day! Nice to connect. We're in this together!
