The very thought of using the monitor gets me anxious but I'll do it and see what happens. Have a great day everyone and take care ❤❤❤
Stay close, dear one.

Good afternoon my beautiful people that I cherish so much.
I woke up super late , I really think that I lost my spark, but I think I went to my roots from where I came from and I think I need to embrace it more and accept that I'm poor.
I went to church yesterday catholic I felt at peace, and at night went to AA meeting and it looks like I'm a temporary sponsor.
24 more for this alcoholic trying to live life at life terms.

To render ourselves insensible to pain we must forfeit also the possibilities of happiness.
—Sir John Lubbock
A caterpillar knows instinctively that it must spin a cocoon. When finished it will use the protection it has made to turn itself into a beautiful butterfly. When the time is right, the butterfly will break through the cocoon and stretch its wings to meet the world.
We sometimes protect ourselves by withdrawing into a cocoon of our own. We stop talking to others and find ourselves growing lonely and longing for our friends. Perhaps it was some pain that made us retreat, but the pain of loneliness is greater. When we have the courage to break out of our cocoon, knowing and accepting the fact that we will experience both pain and happiness, we will change. We will become, for that moment, something new and beautiful like the butterfly.
What fearful thing do I have the courage to face today?

Good afternoon from the East Coast US. It's a cloudy, cool misty Monday in my part of the world, but I'll try to see the beauty in it (but that won't be easy 
In any case, I'm in for another 24 hours of sobriety. And I hope everyone has a nice Monday.
