24Hour Recovery Connection Part 343
Welcome CarpeDiem and congrats on one week.
I've started reading a book of inspirational quotes each night before I fall asleep. I wish I could remember them all but as I have the memory of a forgetful goldfish...'where are my keys? Where did mummy put her keys?' are the words my children hear every day, sometimes more than once a day.. ..so it's hard for me to remember all the words of wisdom but one quote that stuck in my mind last night was this one....
'The entire water of the sea can't sink a ship unless it gets inside the ship. Similarly, negativity of the world can't put you down unless you allow it to get inside you'
Think that struck a chord with me because I'm having to deal with some dubious characters from my past at the moment. They don't seem willing to accept that I've changed and are being fairly spiteful. I think they want a reaction. But I'm not giving them one and I'm refusing to allow their words and actions get me down. I'm sailing along quite happily on my sea of positivity....... now, if only I could find my keys
Congrats to everyone celebrating a milestone. ... 24 more for me please xxxx

Thanks everyone for the congrats! It was yesterday the 29th so you got it right, I just chose an odd time but I finished a glass and said to myself, no more. So that's when I chose my sobriety!
One week in, heck yeah, I'll take another 24!
Congratulations to everyone for choosing this commitment! Have a beautiful day

"Hey,
Don't write yourself off yet.
It's only in your head you feel left out
Or looked down on.
Just try your best.
Try everything you can.
And don't you worry what they tell themselves when you're away.
It just takes some time,
Little girl, you're in the middle of the ride.
Everything, everything will be just fine.
Everything, everything will be alright.
Hey,
You know they're all the same
You know you're doing better on your own,
So don't buy in
Live right now.
Yeah, just be yourself.
It doesn't matter if that's good enough for someone else"

You just keep showing up!
Afternoon gang!
Okay I admit I've had dancing bananas in my head all day!!!!!!
6 months is so huge for me. Mega huge. I actually can't believe it.
And for anyone out there with 1 day 1 week or 1 month THIS is why SR works. I am so passionate about our collective welfare because active participation here SAVED MY LIFE.
I love my sober family in a way nobody in my real life would understand. I don't know why or how but I just do. You guys mean the world to me!
So I'm off to buy celebratory melon slices haha! (Yes the diet must go on lol)
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
