Remembering Day 1

We all have our own ways to attempt to maintain our sobriety for the present day.

Not sure how many people share this thought to help their recovery but I've been remembering my day 1 lately.

I don't dwell on it, but just do a quick recall on how I felt physically, mentally and emotionally. The instant guilt that came over me because I knew better. Knowing something inside was going to compel me to face everyone with the news about my continued drinking at some point. The disappointment, all of those things, just in a quick flashback.

In doing that I'm also well aware that changing my past actions is impossible. Doing all that I must to not repeat those actions today is all I can do.

I go to meetings when I can, thank the power that is watching over me for helping me try to do to the right thing, come on this site when able, whatever I believe can help me and others out.

We are all gonna make mistakes in life. Just gotta trying to make fewer of them if we can I guess. Easier said than done. But it is doable if we try.

Thankful for this site.
