Thank you for sharing.
I was thinking that maybe this isn't for me lately. But I was reminded to mind my business, keep it simple, and stop comparing.
I got kicked out of college right before my first year of sobriety. Then later lost a job opportunity soon after. I will have two years sober on July 23 , currently unemployed and not even close to finishing my education.
But I have the opportunity to be of service often, no longer homeless, and needs have been met the entire time. Very grateful I can believe in a God and live by spiritual principles. It's so much better than the confusion, fantasy, and darkness I lived for 15 years.
