![]() It is important to share and meetings, not to just hear the sound of your own voice, but to look at where your program is at. Sounding out others, because this is a 'we' program. ![]()

S is for Sobriety. One addict sharing with another addict. That is how it works.

S is for Serenity. Be serene if you can. I was told to envision a place from my past that was safe and made me feel good. I went back to the beaver pond from my childhood, that was surrounded by birch trees and tall ever so green grass. Beyond the pond, was a field of wild flowers. I took it for granted back then, I didn't appreciate the beauty of the moment.

S is for Stop. Stop and take an inventory. Stop a momentand think things out instead of act react. Stop and look at where your thinking is at. Does it need to be changed?
When we go to a meeting and share, we can here ourselves and we can see where we are at and we can hear others share and get some Good Orderly Direction. ![]()

S is for Show Me. Show me is not an act of trust. Sometimes we have to believe sight unseen. We have to trust the process. As we work the Steps, we will see how we have changed within ourselves.

S is for Smile. Smile even if you don't feel like it. pass it on and you will find that you generally get them back, and you will begin to feel better.

S is for Sorrow. We get not so good moment in recovery, sadness is part of the grieving process we experience in early recovery. We have lost our best friend, our drug of choice, that stopped working for us. it eas my best friend, and became my worst enemy.

S is for Slow. you will often see me identify myself as a slow recovering alcoholic/addict. i say slow because I had a lot of memories that were buried deeply and it took a while to dig them all out. i can still have new memories in today. i learned from the people when i came in, and i still continue do learn from the new people. it isn't getting any nicer out there. i try to go to a meeting in today with an attitude of a newcomer. i still havelts to learn. When you think you know everything, you know nothing.

S is for Serenity. The only way I could come close was to practice meditation. iI had to empty and quietnmy mind. i had to get me out of the way and let the goodness come in.
