A gift that this program has given me... - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

***Freedom1990*** · 08-30-2008, 08:00 PM

Thanks to a loving God, AA, and doing a lot of work to get to this stage, I am a full-time college student.

I am taking 13 hours online this semester.

My credits from tech school didn't transfer, but I am still hoping to get that double degree. It just may take a bit longer.

I am so excited, soaking it all up like a sponge, and many of my online classmates are also non-traditional students.

I am really into the Human Relations class, Medical Terminology is fascinating, and I can't wait for my pathophysiology class

One of the delightful discoveries of early sobriety was the fact that I actually am a good student, when I'm motivated to study. The times since then that I've been enrolled in school or some other training program are some of the happiest times in my sobriety. Enjoy!

AA has taught me that I will have peace of mind in exact proportion to the peace of mind I bring into the lives of other people, and it has taught me the true meaning of the admonition 'happy are ye who know these things and do them.' For the only problems I have now are those I create when I break out in a rash of self-will.

soooooooo true........toad
