| Another Poetic recovery crap thread. That might save a life. Part 4. Being Humble…
What my recovery has shown me is to humble…I love my music…Not your ordinary music…But club music…Dance music…You know the kind… BOOM>BOOM>BOOM…music…And I like it Loud…Real Loud…In my car I have a 800 Watts system…It pumps. I live in a 26ft RV…In a campground all year around…And they are regulars who live here all year too…Monday a couple about my age with a popup camper rented the space across from me…Buy the way am fifty two…I work nights so I don’t get up until around 10 or 11 in the morning…This morning I got up and made my coffee…I sat down and I turn on my computer…Through my computer I listen to my music. Too me the music wasn’t loud…But not for my new neighbors…I have my door to my RV open and the screen door closed…My new neighbor ( her ) comes over and through my screen door starts yelling at me…Can you shut the fu*king music off…Me and my husband got fu*king headaches from that fu*king Boom boom boom ****…How the fu*k you listen to the ****. Now to be honest to you if this was three a half years ago…Cops and ambulance would have been called…All hell would have broken out between me and her and if the husband wanted to join in…Not a problem. Then what?… Getting arrested…I might get hurt…Or they get hurt…Get sued…Get thrown out of the campground…Or worse…Thanks to my Higher Power and the fellowship today I can humble myself. So what did I do…Sorry Mam…I didn’t know the music was that loud…Next time I wont put it so loud…I hope you except my apology…And she walk away. Anger and resentment…Why…I don’t want to start that mentality again…Anger and resentment is the fuel that relapse needs…I did my 4th and 5th and am done with…Anger and resentment to the best of my ability. So there no reason for me to start piling up anger and resentments again…They have no room in my recovery today. I making some cupcakes to bring to work…One of employees birthday is today…I think I will make an extra half a dozen and give them to my new neighbors. No anger and resentment…Cupcakes…Dam recovery is good. Ivan |
