Twenty-Four Hours a Day 01/03/2014

*~*~*~*^TwentyFourHoursADay^*~*~*~*

A.A. Thought for the Day

When I came into A.A., I learned what an alcoholic was and then I applied this knowledge to myself to see if I was an alcoholic. When I was convinced that I was an alcoholic, I admitted it openly. Since then, have I been learning to live accordingly? Have I read the book Alcoholics Anonymous? Have I applied the knowledge gained to myself Have I admitted openly that I am an alcoholic? Am I ready to admit it at any time when I can be of help?

Meditation for the Day

I will be renewed. I will be remade. In this, I need God's help. His spirit shall flow through me and, in flowing through me, it shall sweep away all the bitter past. I will take heart. The way will open for me. Each day will unfold something good, as long as I am trying to live the way I believe God wants me to live.

Prayer for the Day

I pray that I may be taught, just as a child would be taught. I pray that I may never question God's plans, but accept them gladly.

I am a loser.

What is a loser. One that ruined her life. And no one cares. I am alone.

People that said they cared lied.

Kyrie you are not a loser, you are an alcoholic in a relapse.
I would suggest that you dump the rest of your booze and get some rest. Tomorrow, call your sponsor if you have one and get to a meeting. If possible a step meeting would be the best. Chances are that it will be on the first step.
Get some rest now and stop beating on yourself, it will not get you sober just hurt you some more.
Tomorrow is a brand new day.
hugs

Kyrie. I've just woken up and something made me come check this page first, my eyes are still not yet fully open...I just wanted to say....I was a drunk all my adult life, I have been in AA nearly 2 years, but I didn't 'get it', not really, until a few months back. That's when I stopped trying to re-write the steps to suit ME. I followed them exactly as they are laid out (I missed out step 9 the first time, too hard for me I thought). I listened to what I was told and I did it...am still doing it....

Kyrie, it works.

It bloody works.

I've got loads of stuff going on for me right now, stuff that I would have drunk over for sure...but God is carrying me now Kyrie. I will be ok whatever. I'm helping others, I'm awake....

This can be your truth too. Don't give up hope x
