Lots of love to everyone. Another Friday! They seem to pop round quickly. I hope everyone has a lovely peaceful sober day
Hoping for the best results for you!

So happy it's Friday. I'm off to see one of my favourite comedians -Micky Flanagan - in London's O2 this evening. So excited. I love watching live comedy and I'll be able to remember the jokes tomorrow! Bonus.

Congrats milestoners - g'day y'all (that's me being international). 24 more hours please xxxxx
As I'm sure you know now....people were indeed hurt.

Just SO glad that you are safe.....hoping everyone who lives in London checks in....

Here for my next dose of 24 hrs. Of sobriety and drug addiction freedom.

Guys enjoy your Friday.



Getting Through Hard Times


We are sturdy beings. But in many ways, we are fragile. We can accept change and loss, but this comes at our own pace and in our own way. And only God and we can determine the timing.

—Codependent No More


Hard times, stressful times, are not all there is to life, but they are part of life, growth, and moving forward.

What we do with hard times, or hard energy, is our choice.

We can use the energy of hard times to work out, and work through, our issues. We can use it to fine-tune our skills and our spirituality. Or we can go through these situations suffering, storing up bitterness, and refusing to grow or change.

Hard times can motivate and mold us to bring out our best. We can use these times to move forward and upward to higher levels of living, loving, and growth.

The choice is ours. Will we let ourselves feel? Will we take a spiritual approach, including gratitude, toward the event? Will we question life and our Higher Power by asking what we're supposed to be learning and doing? Or will we use the incident to prove old, negative beliefs? Will we say, "Nothing good ever happens to me... I'm just a victim... People can't be trusted... Life isn't worth living"?

We do not always require hard energy, or stress, to motivate us to grow and change. We do not have to create stress, seek it, or attract it. But if it's there, we can learn to channel it into growth and use it for achieving what's good in life.

God, let my hard times be healing times.
