Smile Another Miracle

I want to share a little of yet more of the promises in life and recovery as it opens up for me.

I had been thinking I was ready for a partner recently and I have been doing something about that and its been interesting, well my hp has put a lovely lady in my life and I don't actually know where this will lead and thats ok, I am excited, happy and grateful.

I stopped using drugs and slowly got better physically, then I started doing what was suggested in the program I work (NA) and my mind became steadier and clearer so long as I worked the program, I became honest about what I had done and started to put my house in order which I still am doing. Now I live the program and have become aware of myself and others spiritual lifes. As I heal spritually my connection with my HP grows strong and my connection with others becomes clearer and stronger.

Still early days for me and I make many mistakes but I have SR, the fellowship my sponsor and my HP to guide and if need be hold me.

I am grateful and will always be grateful.

So Today I am two years four months and two weeks drug free, two years and two days nicotine free, my massive credit card debt has been moved into a manageable loan, I am working at a steady pace, I am often content with no "more's" in sight or mind and it goes on... and am spending time with a lovely woman who wants to be with me.

And I am told by those around and wiser than me that it gest better, seems impossible to me but I believe it becase this is where the impossible meets the road and becomes reality.

All miracles and I do is the footwork.

Kevin

That's wonderful!

Kevin, any woman would be fortunate to be in your company - just think, all the kinks are worked out! I try to always read your posts, even though I don't write very much myself, and you've been inspiring. I'm so thrilled for you. All the twists and turns in our lives that make no sense at the time - maybe it is all for a reason after all. Ya think?

Thanks guys and it is all still miracles but! It seems I get rejected after one or two dates and thats been hard except that I knew it was not for me. Well we had a great night last night and I arrive home to find a message saying I had a great time but no thanks anymore.

I felt so low this morning and questioned my HP for setting this up. Then realised that I did this and maybe the message is not to do this or I am not ready.

I thought about not posting this here or telling friends and members, but I must as I need to see this and move on.

I do feel very silly though and very hurt, rejection makes me feel so dirty, its one of the things from my early childhood, I used to be locked in the shed or at leaast out of the house.... This journey is not always a cake walk and the things that trip me up come out of the blue.

I need to talk and need a hug so badly (rejection makes me think I am untouchable) I am going to phone my freind and meet up with him.

Kevin

PS it seems to me that the choices are keep reaching out and moving forward or slip back into a lousy life and possibly active adiction. So this old dragon is dragging its sorry ass around for a while they getting back up there

I'm glad you shared this, and sorry things didn't go as you hoped or planned. The "moving forward" part sounds good to me....you have come so far your recovery.
extra hugs,

Oh Kevin, I'm sorry you are going through this and I so hope that you feel better. Sometimes it's hard to accept the plan that our HP has for us and I know there are times when I wonder why we can't do it my way. Try to take a step back and believe that everything happens for a reason. The right person will come along for you, when the time is right.

Yeah Anna I know your irght but can't I wallow just a bit

Seriously it hurts its a physical thing in my stomach and its bringing so much to the forefront. I guess I can deal with these a bit at a time, but I do see now that there is much about my self worth, my view of myself that I need to deal with.
