tobersobers, I have daily meditation book that I read daily. I would like to share one. "We thought it sounded a bit fanatical when we were told tht our physical and emotional sobriety must come fore anyone or anything else. But now we understand. Sobriety must ineed be our number one priority, because without it we have nothing. Our own painful eperience has taught us that the minute we begin taking our sobriety for granted, it will begin to slip away. If we don't quickly get our priorities back in order, we are bound to become as physically, mentally, and spiritually bankrupt as we once were. Today we put first things first. we try to have an unequivocal willingness to do whatever is necessary to maintain our physical and emotional well-being. No job, no relationship, no amount of money or status is worth our sobriety". I am praying that my commitment to sobriety will bring about the change I want so much. I am hoping that this time will be different because of my commitment.
