My 28 days in rehab gave me a safe alcohol
free environment to allow the fog to clear
out of my mind and allow myself to listen
and learn about my addiction to alcohol and
receive a program of recovery to incorporate
in all areas of my life once I returned home.

It was a good enough time for the seed of
recovery to be planted with helpful tools
of recovery to help it grow and mature
with me being responsible for my own
recovery and sobriety.

Over the yrs as I continue to listen, learn,
read, absorb, apply what I learned early on,
even coming here to SR, my extra life line
in recovery, ask for help if needed, then I
can return to the basics and stop myself
from returning to the insanity that comes
along with picking up a drink of alcohol/poison.

A successful life in recovery comes with
continued maintenance each and everyday
you wake up and face a new sober day.

I stay within my 24 hour day making sure
that I live to the best of my human ability
because yesterday is over and gone and
tomorrow.....well....it's not here yet so we
have no idea what tomorrow may bring.

Do everything to not drink today.

Then if tomorrow comes, rinse and repeat.

None of us ever have to go thru recovery life
alone or by ourselves. We here in SR are online
fellowship we can lean on for love, care, understanding
and support.

We are here for you. Don't let us go.
