Diamonds, Opals, Precious Present - Weekenders 24 - 27 May 2019



Welcome to the Weekenders

I’ve been thinking this week about the ‘precious present’ we all have and sometimes don’t see it right in front of us!

When first sober and starting my recovery journey, I read of baby steps and one day at a time. I also learnt of now, this moment, the present. I thought I understood.

The future was stretched way ahead out of my grasp and would be there as long as I knew it, but with these small steps, a day at a time I began to stop and look around me, notice this moment.

For once in my life I learnt to be present for the moment, sober, not planning my next drinks, and the ones after that too!

Nowadays I don’t chase after tomorrow but enjoying my precious present, right here and now.

If this is your first weekend sober, or many, come join us for support and chat, as we know the weekends can be a struggle sometimes, and being sober gives us the clarity to enjoy our precious present.
