Do not suffer in aloneness. there is no such thing.

It is so important to stay in today. Sometimes it is in the moment.

I woke up with a head ache, it disappeared. My feet weren't swollen like they have been for months, then I had two gentlemen friends arrive, one invited, the other the man in my life who dropped by unexpectedly, and then my son showed. I had a friend from his girlfriend early, and all of a sudden the feet are swelling, the body is in pain, and all from stress. The thing I came to realize was, it wasn't my stress and not mine to take on.

It is so important for me to be in the moment, look at where I am at, take ownership for my part, and let go of the rest. A lot easier said than done, especially when it concerns those you love.

I received an e-mail earlier today which was about how we use the "blame game" to justify our behaviour, thoughts, etc., but anything from outside of ourselves is but a reflection of our own inner truth.

So grateful for the new awareness, clarity, understanding, and experiences in my life that helped me grow and heal.

I am worthy of being happy, of having people love me the way I want to be loved, and of making my own choices about what happens to me.
It's my life. Today I take it back.

sometimes have hard time feeling good enough with others not pretty enough nice enough so work on the outside when I should work on inside to feel good on inside What fear of defect driving me I need to look reflect pray sometimes just stay still and feel then let go. I always need meetings others to listen to and God Higher power in the rooms and online. So glad we have each other to love each other and respond to . Love Heather Have a good day

Don't know if it is because I have celebrated two Thanksgivings and Christmas is on the way, but have had a lot of gratitude.

It seems like I am noticing more and more, the little things in my life and more importantly, remembering to say Thank You.

Each day, I am thankful for being clean and sober. I remember all the years that I struggled and vowed never to do it again, but I did.

How many times, I prayed, "God get me out of this and I will ...."

How many times have I thought, "I don't need help, I can do it on my own."

How many times have I said, "This time it will be different, I will eat, I won't mix my drinks, I will get up and dance instead of sitting and just drinking, etc."

Thank you for being a part of my sobriety. Thank you for those who still struggle for carry the message to me that it isn't any better out there. Thank you to those who make it back in, it affirms that the program is the only way and you give me hope.

They told me in the rooms of recovery when I came in many years ago that AA was the last house on the block. We try so many things, and finally when our score card read zero, we finally went to AA. I could stop, but I couldn't stay stopped. I am so grateful for AA that has allowed me to stop, one day at a time, for 23 years and 7 days.

A grateful addict will never have a reason to pick up. Lots of excuses, but no reason. I am so grateful that I was given a second chance at life. I had been trying my way for eight years and when I entered the doors of recovery, I found the solution. It was up to me to put it into action.

I am so grateful for the young girl who introduced me to NA literature when in treatment in November 1991. She is no longer with us. She will always be my special angel because she carried the message to me.

I am grateful that I found a Higher Power. I choose to call Him "My God" as He is personal to me. Before God was this distant Being and through the fellowship of the spirit, I was able to bring Him closer and build a relationship with Him.

God was an old tape. He was who other people told me He was. I had to find out who He was to me. I am grateful that He reveals Himself to me each day. As I shared with my son yesterday, God is a He when I need Good Orderly Direction. God is a She when I need tender loving care (Divine Orderly Good), and an It when I need to go within and find my answer. I went on a spiritual journey at a year sober. I am grateful that everywhere I went, God was there. I try to show my gratitude for thanking Him for being a part of my journey. I am grateful that He is always there. It is up to me to acknowledge Him.

I am grateful that you are all a part of my life!

I am grateful to be clean and sober in today.

Humility and gratitude run hand in hand. The promises come true as we lower our ego and thank God for our friends family and fellowship.

[MajestyJo]

Many people don't get their family back. It took me a long time to find the acceptance of their attitude toward the 'alcoholic' and the condescension that I received. The fellowship(s) loved me and put me back together.
