My biggest fear in sobriety was being condemned to hanging out with "boring people" (because God only knows people who drink to excess---me included--- are just so much more "fun" ;) ) but that has been the furthest thing from the truth. Maybe I just got really luck with the two groups I go to but when I hear people worry about AA being uptight and super-religious and exclusionary I think, "Wow, I wish they could meet this lot of people..." In any case, I AM lucky. And blessed. For these new friends, for all of you, and, of course, for another 24 of sobriety! :) Hope everyone is off to a good start for their weekend and see you all here tomorrow!! ((Sober hugs)) 12:13AM in DC. Thank you for expressing my thoughts, how did you know??!!:c011: It also is incredible how the Big Book new all about me, and I wasn't even born yet.

What can we do today that will make a difference in our tomorrow? We can start right now. Maybe we have been giving this sobriety thing a whirl for a long time now and what we are doing is not quite working. Maybe we need to check out an AA or NA meeting. Or maybe seeing a counselor or therapist. Maybe out patient therapy or Detox. What can we do today? Do we need to make a few calls and find out what our options are? If we are stuck and it has been awhile and we keep returning to our drug of choice whether it be alcohol or drugs then it is safe to say that the approach we are trying right now is not quite working or maybe we are not working hard enough at it. Maybe it is just not enough and we need a little extra support or direction. It is time! Lets not let another day go by. Let's figure out what we need to do to move forward and put the past behind us and really start living our lives free from alcohol and drugs. Let's figure out what those tools are that we need to pick up daily to keep this addiction in remission. People are doing it. People at SR are doing it. People in AA are doing it. People in NA are doing it. People doing AVRT are doing it. The question is, Is what you are doing working? What works for some people may not work for you. Whatever you are doing, you have to give yourself fully to it. AA has a saying "Half measures availed us nothing". Well I think it's that way towards anything in life. You get out what you put in. What can we do for our recovery today? Look at people's profiles, look for people who have been clean and sober for awhile. Ask them what is working for them and then when they tell you take their suggestions. The 24 Hour Club is just one tool. There are many others and we need a full tool box at all times. We must always have an open mind when our future and life is on the line and be willing to do what it takes. *Song For The Day - Proud - Heather Small Prayers for medic61310 (earache and sore throat), britgirl (strength), ersatzmatriarch(recovering from surgery) And for all those in their first month! http://img-s3-01.mytextgraphics.com/...2db138ec38.gif If unable to find this thread at anytime in the future, go to search near top of page, type in Newcomer Daily Support Forum and hit go.
