24 Hour Recovery Connection Part 225
Good morning amazing people.
I don't know is I share this before I suffer some kind bad breathing problems and that give me headaches.i don't sleep through the night. And that make me a cranky old man. But glad to be sober and clean this morning.
Thought for the Day
Before I met A.A., I was very unloving. From the time I went away to school, I paid very little attention to my mother and father. I was on my own and didn't even bother to keep in touch with them. After I got married, I was very unappreciative of my spouse. Many a time I would go out all by myself to have a good time. I paid too little attention to our children and didn't try to understand them or show them affection. My few friends were only drinking companions, not real friends. Have I gotten over loving nobody but myself?
Meditation for the Day
Be calm, be true, be quiet. Do not get emotionally upset by anything that happens around you. Feel a deep, inner security in the goodness and purpose in the universe. Be true to your highest ideals. Do not let yourself slip back into the old ways of reacting. Stick to your spiritual guns. Be calm always. Do not talk back or defend yourself too much against accusation, whether false or true. Accept criticism as well as you accept praise. Only God can judge the real you.
Prayer for the Day
I pray that I may not be upset by the judgment of others. I pray that I may let God be the judge of the real me.

I am a month sober. Its 11pm on Thursday night and I found it tough not to drink tonight. Husband came home with his supply of drink as usual and got stuck into it. It definately makes it tougher to be around him drinking. Tomorrow is Friday and I finish work for a weeks holiday- previously, that would have been a green light to drink even more than usual. So, I am committing to 24 hours sober on here so that I can come back again tomorrow at the same time and say these words. I did not drink, because I DO NOT DRINK, EVER.

Just wanted to talk about and strange dream I had last night. I had pancreatic cancer. I was talking to one friend and I think the context was something about leaving my job and not getting a treatment that would make me even more ill. When I explained why, I said it was because I wanted to enjoy what life I have left with my family. I want my children to remember positive memories of me instead of me being sad and sick. I took that as my brain talking to me about my addiction. We all have many reasons to kick the habit. One of the ones that is most important to me is that I want to get well for my family. I dont want my children to have memories of me being depressed and sick with addiction. I want to do better for myself and my family. I'm happy and grateful to take on another 24hrs sober. Have a wonderful day everyone!

Health and positivity to you, dear Ck.
That is a heavy one. My sister died a year ago from Leimyosarcoma. It was a torturous death. I told my H last night that I dont want to die from the C word. Its quite awful and down right devastating.
I also do not want to die from alcoholism. Seems just as awful when I think about the emotional, mental, spiritual, financial and physical ruin it causes.
Life. It sure does have a lot to it. Walking forward with sobriety today.

Let's leave the ruin far behind.
