Staying Positive

Some ways in which I try to remain positive include not worrying about the
past or the future. Worry is a useless emotion. It doesn't solve anything.

I have heard it said that the past is history, the future is a mystery, and that
today is a gift... that is why it's called the present!

I also try not to speak negativity into my life. Negativity brings others down and
when I speak it , it tends to follows me where ever I go. I may think it but I will
not speak it. I won't feed into it.

I try to count my Blessings, each and every day.

I try to focus on the good things in my life, no matter how small or seemingly
insignificant.

Having an attitude of gratitude really helps, so I often look back at where I have
been and realize how it could always be worse.

I could be sitting in a jail cell, a psych ward or a detox facility, where I have been a
frequent visitor. I could be that homeless man or woman on the street.

Random acts of kindness. Doing nice things for others also lifts our own spirits.

I try to pass blessings on to others - simple stuff like holding the door open for
strangers, , helping some one carry their groceries to the car. Giving children
quarters at the dollar store. Helping the homeless.

I try not to stay idle. The saying is true that the empty mind is the devil's workshop.

Are we staying positive today?

Everyone may begin signing in again for the next 24 hours. Roster
will be posted 24 Hours from now.



These are excerpts of a post, posted by an SR Member by the name of SavingSelf.
Who in Oct. celebrated a year of sobriety. AA and therapy are a part of their sobriety
plan. I asked them to post it in the club a few months ago and I am reposting it.
It is some good stuff!

Here were their thoughts....

Admitted I was an alcoholic. Not a problem drinker, not I had a problem, not I
need to stop drinking for awhile, not I have to just not drink hard liquor, not I can't
drink on an empty stomach, not I can only drink on the weekends, not I can
only drink at special occasions, not I can only drink while out socially.

I know I cannot drink today or ever again. I remind myself daily. I don't obsess
or lament about it. It just is. Just as I am a "5 ft 1" female, I am an alcoholic. And
that is ok. I am no worse, or better, than any other alcoholic.

I pay attention to my thoughts surrounding alcohol. I consider drinking alcohol
for me, a moral failure going forward.

Just as I would never try to harm another (or steal, cheat etc) I consider alcohol
harmful for me, and thus I cannot drink it.

Any thought that leads me towards drinking, I attribute to my addict voice and
dismiss and ignore as best and as quickly as I can.

I am a member of the no matter what club. No matter what happens, good or bad,
in life--I know that drinking another drop of alcohol will never make it better--
only worse.

It won't make me feel better, only worse. The guilt and the shame won't be better,
only worse. There is nothing good left in alcohol for me. The active part of my alcoholism
is done.

So today I won't drink. And I plan on making that same choice every day for the
rest of my life. One day at a time, gratefully.
---------------------------------------------------------------

This is a person who has accepted their addiction. Acceptance is half the battle.
Great job SavingSelf!

We had another clear blue warm day, the bleachers & signs have been up for the Rose Parade too. Seeing RV's, campers, and cars parked to save the their spot. Thankful I'm sober today, thankful I'm active daily in my Recovery. So, YES, I'll sign in for another 24 hours! . Bobbi
