60 Kick Ass Sober Days

I am feeling pretty darn great, even though my fourth step is in the beginning stages.I love what being clean is doing for me as a human being.If you are new to sobriety, do not give up, keep doing what you need to do, and you will find light at the end of the tunnel.I am making sober friends through my continued attendance at meetings.Just remember that friendships take time to flourish.I am giving my recovery effort and it is paying off.

Alright!!! Great work. 60 days clean means you're fully on the clean-train. You've hit the stage where your concern shifts from GETTING clean, to STAYING clean. And with the horrors of addiction still fresh in your memory, you know what a huge improvement that is to your condition.

WELL DONE!! BRAVO!!

By the way--forgive my ignorance, but what's the fourth step? Is that the "turn yourself over to the Higher Power" step, or the "moral inventory" step? I know I could google it but I think it's better to just talk about it here, since it obviously is important to you.

Moral Inventory is Step 4.I got a guide to doing it from my home group last nite.It put everything in complete perspective.

Making a moral inventory is wonderful advice, even for non-addicts. If one cannot examine closely their own moral fibre, then nobody else is going to do it for you.
