I thought today was the most important day of my life. I thought I was supposed to just worry about today not tomarrow. What if tomarrow never comes and I have spent my time wishing I would have gone. SOOOO confused

Today is the most important day. It is a gift. :present: That doesn't mean we cannot plan for tomorrow. We still have to do all sorts of things in life that require some planning. You did not go today. Go tomorrow. Do not beat yourself up. Just do what you have to do. "What if tomorrow never comes...." is one of a thousand what if's that could drive us all crazy if we let them.
When I had a hard time starting to go to meetings, I found another addict to go with me. It was still a little hard to go, but it helped a LOT.

((((((Jessie!)))))) Good for you! I was petrified to go to my first meeting. It takes a lot of guts to walk into a meeting where you don't know a soul, but I'm as sure as I can be that you'll feel differently afterwards and will come away with the love of the fellowship surrounding you. Let us know how it goes!
