There are some pretty awesome milestoners today ! Special shout out to Hearts for 2 big years. Not to diminish all the other milestoners as they are equally important. Embrace the moment and keep moving forward.
I frequently have moments of fear and worry. Whilst I know they are of little value, nevertheless I do get them. Sometimes they can overwhelm for a few minutes. However, unlike the past, nowadays I confront my negative feelings and delve into why they arise. For example, I had a moment of worry this morning when I thought "when will I get relief ?". By this I mean relief from having to hunt for new clients and have a stable income. I examined this closely and realised my delusion of the past, where I had a high paying job, as being a wonderland of happiness. Conveniently forgetting that the job was actually horrible, I was going insane with loneliness, I absolutely loathed myself and my alcoholism reigned supreme.
Oh, reality check. How I love the clarity of being sober ! Ummm, actually I am so far better where I am now ! Work is going to be a struggle as it is for everyone. But I am taking steps in the direction I want to head. I know it. I need to be patient.
Another 24 hours of patience, joy and sobriety pls ! Its 9:29am here !
