Not counting the days, but making the days count.
All we have is today. I'm no longer worrying about how much time sober I have or how much time sober I could get. All's I have is this 24 hours, and as long as I don't pick up, I'll be okay.
Today was nice. I came home and went to a meeting and saw my sponsor and shared about feelings of guilt and shame that have been bothering me. It's crazy how even just getting those feelings out in the open brings so much relief. I was a little tempted to act out in other ways other than using drugs but I applied the principles of my program to that and I got past it. I'll probably go to bed in a little bit.
Good night people of SR, stay pretty.

Great subject line Jake - I'm trying to let go of the whole day counting component, I'm finding it more detrimental than useful. Who knows what tomorrow will bring, let's focus on what we can work with right now. Take care : )
