Today I am trying to work on concentrating on what is good in my life- and on what I have achieved in the past 6 months- and wanted to share!
I am a mother of 3.
I am a wife of an alcoholic.
I am an Adult Child of Alcoholic Parents.
I am a classic codependent.
I am a believer in the Higher Power
I am a grateful member of Al Anon.
I am someone who has never realised how affected I truly was by living with Alcoholism.
I am a mother, whose children have all been affected by this disease.
I am a mother, who is ready to address my issues, so that I can change my behaviour.
I am a person who is ready to embrace my recovery, and to work at it to the best of my ability.
I am a person who realises this is a lifetime journey needing gentleness and compassion.
I am ready to forgive myself, as well as the alcoholics in my life.
I am a seeker of Serenity.
I am ready to ‘Take Care of Myself’.
I am ready to truly enjoy the rest of my life
I am thankful for SR, and all the support within this forum.

Thanks to both of you- I value your opinions in all your posts. Thinking about why I wanted to share, the answers I came up was that I have learnt so much through people's positive attitudes, that if what I wrote helps even one person to realise that there is a light at the end of the tunnel, my experience has an added bonus!
Sometimes life is so dark for us, that we do forget our way- and it is by others' beacons of light that we get on the right path....Serenity is out there for the taking, we need to be able to llook for it!
