60 Days Today - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

Tea4me · 10-20-2008, 03:44 AM

What a wonderful period of growth and regeneration.

All of those areas of my life that were wilting are now in bloom once more.

My work, my relationships, my career, my spirituality, my health, and my financial position is beyond any expectation I could've had not so long ago.

The joy that I find in recovery is greater than any binge that I ever had. The joy is enduring and of a better quality than any I have experienced before.

That nebulous "joy" that I once chased from bar to bar and could never catch hold of is something of the past...it has been replaced by gratitude, purpose, some humility I hope. I just thank God for my recovery and AA.

Good deal T4me!!!

Congrats on 60 days, what has always amazed me is every time I think "It can not get better then this!" it does as long as I keep working at it.
