Smile still grateful

today i am grateful for the knowledge that although i am a product of my parents beliefs, that as an adult, i do not have to accept these as true or as beliefs i want to uphold.
i have the oppertunity to let go of those core beliefs about myself and the world that are negative or that belittle me or others.
who am i to judge others?....
lying in the gutter looking down on everyone.... as a close friend once told me. im grateful i have friends who love me enough to tell me the things that i dont want to hear, that love me enough to sit thru my reaction and help me make a change if i decide to.
friends that love me enuff to help me realize my faults without judging or putting me down.
im so grateful for a sponsor who not only cares just that im not using but loves me enuff to want to help me become a whole person
Im grateful that i dont have to pass on all the issues that i was given by my parents to my beautiful daughter. she deserves more than i got.

I deserve more than i got.

its hard to let go of parts of me that are deeply ingrained, but ive noticed, the things i really cling to are the most damaging to me.
they are the REALLY deeply seated beliefs.
Im grateful for being an addict
I believe that without drugs to escape my hellish youth i would have been a suicide statistic.
Now, addiction has given me the opportunity, no, its FORCED me, to confront those issues that where so painful once that only being unconscious could make them disappear.
everyone has issues
Addicts and Alcoholics KNOW we have issues!
I have the ability to become a helluva more stable person than the next bod, all thanks to being an addict.
god, my family are really screwed up but they just dont know!
I do!
and i can love and nurture my innerself until its the 'shape' that fits me best.
hugs x
