How has sobriety changed your perspective of time??
Today in our small community 3 teens were killed in a car wreck. It happen late evening/early morning about 3:00am. This was their homecoming week. Very sad.....
While our community is touched in different ways by this the concept of time came to mind. Time is short, time is of the essence etc.
As newly sober I contemplated on how much more time means to me. Yesterday is gone, tomorrow may not be. This moment as I type this post is now gone.
I am so much more aware of living in the moment - that spilt second of a hug, smile, kiss or just spending time......with the ones we love. Wasting time, seems so much more self indulgent to me now. Though I am certainly guilty of this.
I wasted so much time drunk. While I am coming to terms with that, and cannot turn back the clock, it makes me every more vigilant of today.
Thought this might be helpful to throw this out to SR friends as a topic - ESH??
( experience/strength and hope).
How has sobriety changed your concept of time? Past, present and future???
