It's 5:44 AM and I'm in for another sober 24.

Thankfully, the only withdrawal symptom I experienced yesterday was a bit of fatigue. No anxiety, no headache, nothing. Prayerfully requesting 24 more sober hours today :-)

What kind of friends do we have? Are they people who complain a lot? Are they people who laugh at us or put others down?
The kind of people we want to be will decide what kind of friends we have. If we want to feel sorry for ourselves, we will choose friends who will tell us how rotten their lives are. If we want to think we're better than others, we will hang around people who laugh at others' mistakes.
But if we want to be the best we can be, we will pick friends who see the good in life, people who will encourage us to be ourselves and who will help us try harder at things that are difficult for us.
How can I be a better friend today?
Tired I think too much. Oh well.
24 more for this grateful alcoholic.

Keep coming back GP we need you. Btw, BK I've got six cavities hence even tho I'm off my sugar fast, my taste buds for anything sweet has virtually gone & don't wanna have craving again like booze does. Once in a while will get a sharp pain in lower teeth but dentist said they can't work on me if have any metal in me(had final two screws removed from knee on 2/29 so its my turn to take action & get it done)! Thx for reminder. Hi Kris? How's your spirituality going today? Hope all is well & thx for post coz was feeling weary earlier as if had given my all & didn't feel like had anything more. That's when I shut bedroom door & prayed in the Spirit & got rejuvenated!! 24 mo of tranquility pls
--p.s. Another 24 for me please.
