Kicking aside my own stumbling blocks
 
What amazes me, with years of drinking and drugging behind me, how many walls and stumbling blocks I have created during those times, with hiding from myself, and others, thinking the whole world was a conspiracy group, custom made for my inevitable downfall. I finally realized deep down, I desperately needed change! Now, my renewed life of sobriety, I have found that ridding my system of these negative, dangerous addictions, in conjunction with rejoining with my Higher Power, interacting with the great people here at S/R, every single aspect of my life has turnaround, it was trying at times, however, every effort I made (and with help and support), is Heaven sent!!

I'm going to keep working it, because its really, truly worth it!
God Bless

I know what you mean. It's so easy to blame the establishment for everything that goes wrong. Changing things up with myself even a little bit has made a noticeable difference. It's risky business changing things up, because I have to think out of the box and that takes some creativity which requires that I not be lazy anymore. I'm still working on my lazy attitude, but
I shake my head all of the time and tell myself....now why didn't I think of that before? Just trying has made all of the difference. Not perfect, but trying.

Thanks Val, I don't know why I waited so long either, remembering back to being comfortably numb all those wasted years is hard for me to except now, still trying though.
