Thank you Sunflowerlife, Venuscat, and others for posting about the difficult times you have been going through. I'm sorry things have been rough for you, but sometimes its good to hear relatable stories like this, as I know I and I think many others share some of these experiences and when we hear others share the same things it helps us feel at home here

And yes, I think the vitamin D helps too. I was taking it pretty regularly and stopped taking it for a couple of weeks and noticed my mood drop. Since I started taking it regularly again the last week or so it feels like its been getting better. This time of year can be rough for many of us who live in the more northern places

Ready for work. Last night went I was in bad the thought of drinking came to mind
For couple of minutes I entertained but but here I’m hangover free
Let’s keep going with another 24 hrs. More

Thought for the Day


Keeping sober is the most important thing in my life. The most important decision I ever made was my decision to give up drinking. I am convinced that my whole life depends on not taking that first drink. Nothing in the world is as important to me as my own sobriety. Everything I have, my whole life, depends on that one thing. Can I afford ever to forget this, even for one minute?

Meditation for the Day


I will discipline myself. I will do this disciplining now. I will turn out all useless thoughts. I know that the goodness of my life is a necessary foundation for its usefulness. I will welcome this training, for without it, God cannot give me His power. I believe that this power is a mighty power when it is used in the right way.

Prayer for the Day


I pray that I may face and accept whatever discipline is necessary. I pray that I may be fit to receive God's power in my life.

I don't think there's anything narrow-minded about taking a stand and/or taking a break. We're all on the same journey but our paths are different and as long as we're staying sober, I reckon we're all moving in the right direction. Love you Pebs xxxx

I love you all.

We are so BRAVE to face all the fear and be doing it anyway.

I just feel such a rush of overwhelming love for you all right this minute.

I'm so sorry you went through that and so happy to hear you have come to the other side. It really was a miracle to be saved and I truly believe our angels are here for a reason and your angels were there protecting you on that day! This world would not be the same without you. So glad you are here with us to share you positivity and endless support.

I do believe that once I get through this first year of sobriety, things should feel a little bit better- at least that's what I keep convincing myself. I am sure there are still adjustments being made in my brain and body and of course now I'm actually dealing with the raw emotions I used to numb. Do you think year 2 and 3 feel different from the first year?
