Honesty
This is strictly my opinion and how my recovery works.
In recovery there is nothing more important to me as profound self honesty. If I can't be
honest with myself then I am probably going to be dishonest about many things in my life.
Without self-honesty I don't have a very good start.
Sobriety "For me" is being free from all mind altering chemicals. My mental, emotional and spiritual
faculties being completely in tact and not affected in any way by a chemical.
I am sober for over a year (Free of all mind altering chemicals) but for "example" If I were to state
I was sober for 1 year but used cocaine up until 4 months ago and still consider myself sober for 1
year, that would not be the truth.
How could I have considered myself sober minded under the influence of cocaine? Now I am lying
to myself.
If I am deceiving myself then what is the point?
It would show that I don't have much of a consciense and if I do I am not listening to it.
Will I ever have to take a mind altering chemical such as pain medication at some point in the
future ? Most likely as at some point in everyone's life they are in legitimate pain.
There are people (addicts) who have legitimate reasons to take certain mind altering chemicals
that are prescribed whether it be anxiety, pain etc. who take it as directed. That's not what I
am talking about.
I am talking about self deception and lying to myself and others when the person it really hurts
is myself.
I am talking about self-honesty. I know if I am abusing something or not. Deep down in my heart I
know my own truth.
If there is something preventing me from being honest with myself and others because of pride I
see that as a real problem.
I don't want to just be abstinent, I want to be a better human being, I want to live in
integrity. This is not just about lengths of sobriety it is about self honesty.
If I am uncomfortable with being confronted with my own truth it is probably because I am
living a lie. I don't want to live a lie.
In order for me to grow up spiritually and emotionally I have to listen to my gut and be honest
with myself!!

Hi 24 Hour Club!
I think I caused a little confusion on my last post. Some people may have misinterpreted what I posted.
I am indeed clean and sober since 12/27/12. That means I have not used any mind altering chemicals, alcohol,
drugs etc. period since 12/26/12.
My post was a mere Example. It is how I feel about sobriety. I could never claim any length of time in sobriety
if I were still using and abusing another mind altering chemical.
For if I were , my mental, emotional and spiritual faculties would be influenced by that chemical.
It was a mere example and strictly my opinion concerning my own recovery.

Honesty
If you happened to read Sunday's post I wanted to clarify something.
Some people may have misinterpreted what I posted.
I am indeed clean and sober since 12/27/12. That means I have not used
any mind altering chemicals, alcohol, drugs etc. period since 12/26/12.
My post was a mere "Example." It is how I feel about sobriety. I could never
claim any length of time in sobriety if I were still using and abusing another mind
altering chemical.
For if I were my mental, emotional and spiritual faculties would be influenced
by that chemical.
Again, it was a mere "Example" and strictly my opinion on how I view sobriety and
total self honesty.
Thoughts
"Watch your thoughts, for they become words.
Watch your words, for they become actions.
Watch your actions, for they become habits.
Watch your habits, for they become character.
Watch your character, for it becomes your destiny."

be the one that makes a difference.”
