Today, August 21 2016, I am celebrating 9 years clean and sober!!

I am feeling very grateful about my life today as I write this. That hasn’t always been the case. And even though I work hard on my inner development on a daily basis, even though I know I deserve to feel good, I am aware that I’ve been given an amazing gift …… because of the grace of God, I was given a second chance at life. My recovery from many addictive behaviors started 9 years ago after almost 40 years of drug and alcohol abuse. It wasn’t pretty. I was in very bad shape in every possible way…..physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. There was a lot of work I needed to do on myself. How glad I am today that I was willing to do all the personal recovery work required. All the hard work was so worthwhile. I gradually learned that all I had to do was take it one day at a time and ask God to guide my thoughts and actions. Today I enjoy working with women who want to change the way they are living. What I know is that the life I used to live was far more painful than anything I have gone through after making the choice to no longer use those self-destructive behaviors. For any of you who are currently thinking about making the choice to become healthier, I really want to encourage you to be on that wonderful, self-respectful path. The journey of self-discovery will be the most awesome “trip” you’ll ever take! Today I would like to thank those who helped me along my journey, those who have traveled with me and those who are witness to my transformation. I wish you all love and light, one day at a time.

Signing up for 24 hours drink and drug free. 6:57am in Jacksonville, Florida
Today's inspiration! Thanks for taking the time to make this post and congratulations.....I'll join you in another 24.

Peace all,

Try not doing anything in bed but sleeping. This from a chronic insomniac. Maybe listening to some music would help.
