Wowzers,
It’s “rabbit, rabbit” time in the morning again already. Happy almost July people.
I am extremely grateful for somehow making it through another busy day. Going to a meeting where I was surrounded with people with alcoholism and addiction was the most important part of my day. Besides picking my dog up from doggy daycare!! The meeting touched on so many crucial issues for staying sober. One of the most important things is to show up to meetings. I haven’t seen one in awhile and it’s so nice to be welcomed back. I have not fallen off the wagon I’ve just been so busy with work. But this is super dangerous, this is what eventually will lead to relapse. The speaker tonight spoke about this. How we may not drink in the crisis, but we may drink during the calm after he storm. He spoke about turning it over to God or the higher power of your choice. Finding a sponsor. Connection. The big book. The steps. Meditation. Prayer. Rigorous honesty.
The ease that was felt with my first drink. The relief I felt When I quit drinking. One day at a time. And so much more. But what really is stuck in my mind is that the man didn’t even know how to read. His very first attempt was the big book, the promises, literature from the rooms. Now he’s a great reader and can read to his son. That means he gave himself another chance. He saw his true self and began to grow. I am 3 3/4 years sober now and I can’t even find myself. I know I’m in there. Please pray for me. Someday I will be happy joyous and free.
I pray

Prayers it's a cliche but also true - good things come to those who wait.
