24 Hour Recovery Connection Part 245
Good morning beautiful and fantastic people
I want to complain about my life but nothing to complain, better be grateful for what I have.
24 hrs. More for this alcoholic that is living life one moment at the time.
He that cannot forgive others breaks the bridge over which he must pass himself; for every man has need to be forgiven.
—Thomas Fuller
We have all seen adventure movies in which the heroes or villains are caught on a bridge that collapses. As they fall to whatever lies below, they are perhaps able to climb to one side or the other. But for the time being, their ability to cross between the two sides is gone.
When we have been hurt by people in our lives, or when we have hurt others, mutual forgiveness is needed in order to rebuild the trust between us. It is very much like rebuilding a bridge - one piece at a time. We take cautious steps at first - testing the safety and strength of our bridge.
When two people have become separated by loss or anger, it is forgiveness that can rebuild the bridge between them. Forgiveness needs time and so does the rebuilding of trust.
Can I begin to rebuild a friendship today?

Checking in for 24 hours. Went to the rooms last night after a few weeks. That was negligent on my part. I firmly believe there is nothing more therapeutic than listening and sharing with other alcoholics. Better than medications or professional therapy any day of the week ! Also brings one down to earth. There was one chap who shared last night and I recognized a lot of me in his story. He was in rehab and had only just begun the sober journey. It made me realise how far along the path I have travelled already. I am so fortunate and indeed so very grateful for all of you !
Congrats to all the milestoners ! It is wonderful to be part of this little community even if only in cyber space. Compassion and kindness has no boundaries Onwards we go !
Another 24 hours of serenity, compassion and sobriety pls ! Its 8:12am here !
