Even though I'm lonely it could be worse.
I could have a drink in my hand and be pretending that it is a relationship.
Or I could be in a bad relationship because i feel too worthless to care or am too drunk to notice.

Even though I am not losing weight and I'm trying so hard and I'm so frustrated, at least I'm not drinking and I look and feel so much better for it, no matter what the scale says.

Even though I don't feel like going through my recovery behaviors, it could be worse, at least I still AM going through them.

Even though I'm laying in bed awake in the middle of the night it could be worse.
I could be passed out downstairs drunk with a migraine waiting for me when I woke up...

Even though I am not feeling quite right and have low energy,
it could be worse,
I could be killing myself with alcohol and not have no clue how I feel.

Even though family trauma is triggering, It could be worse, I could be totally alone, without a sponsor or friends who care about my sobriety.

I could be worse, I could be just beginning my journey through the legal system for my last DWI , instead of being sober , having licked the resentment of the pain and expense, the jail time ! There is a light i'm looking forward to in the future, this silly ankle bracelet coming off my leg, my probation officer loosening up a little on me after seeing i'm truly committed and things getting better with the rest of my life all because of substituting green tea for the beer and bourbon ! It's good to be sober! Stay Strong and Well ! Bobby

Even though I
have been having cravings
3 or 4 nights in the last week
as well as a drinking dream,
It could be worse....
I could be taking them seriously
but I refuse to.
I will wear them out
before they wear me down.
