24more this beautiful fall Monday! I’m in ! Blessed to be sober today! Such a busy weekend, but I’m ready to face the week with a clear head. I was able to make an amends this weekend and the truth is I’m amazed before being half way through as the promises say... “if we are painstaking about This phase of our development we’ll be amazed before we are half way through. We are going to know a new freedom and happiness!” It is so very true! So if you are struggling today, keep working it however you chose to do so! Today is a blessing waiting for you to receive it! Much love to all and high fives to those hitting Milestones today!!

I love the 12 promises Minion.

12 Promises

We are going to know a new freedom and a new happiness.
We will not regret the past nor wish to shut the door on it.
We will comprehend the word serenity.
And we will know peace.
No matter how far down the scale we have gone,
we will see how our experience can benefit others.
That feeling of uselessness and self-pity will disappear.
We will lose interest in selfish things and gain insight in our fellows.
Self-seeking will slip away.
Our whole attitude and outlook will change.
Fear of people and economic insecurity will leave us.
We will intuitively know how to handle situations which used to baffle us.
We will suddenly realize that God is doing for us what we could not do for ourselves.

So, in the name of honesty and integrity I have to post that today is day two. I’ve been struggling with a couple of issues lately. I’m hoping I put one of them to rest yesterday..

The other one will work itself out in time. There’s nothing I can do about this one but wait it out.

Let’s all make it a sober day today!

I've noticed that every so often I feel a little weird … and I'm fully aware that I'm naturally quite weird but this weird is weirder that my normal weird. During this strange weird, I seem to become more creative than usual... I can sit in front of my laptop and write page after page of my book. So, that's good. But the downside is I seem to pick up even more on other people's emotions during this time, leaving me drained. Such is the weirdness of this new weird, I've started keeping a journal of when it happens and guess what? Today, I looked through my journal and looked at the dates and did a bit of research and I think I know the reason. My strange weird always starts a day or so before the full moon and then afterwards I go back to being regular weird.

And I'm not sure whether this happens to anyone else but at the risk of sounding even more weird, I thought I'd put it out there. As humans, we're all subject to the ebb and flow of stuff I don't properly understand but it feels marvellous to feel like I am starting to understand myself. When I was drinking, my emotions and moods were all squashed up into one big clump. Now I feel as though I'm unpicking it all and starting to understand that I don't have to understand every mystery of this world.... I just need to try to acknowledge what I'm feeling because then I can keep myself safe and get through to the other side. So, for the next couple of days I know I need to stay away from negativity as that will drain me... and I also know it will be a good time to get working on my book. And after the full moon, when normal weird descends on Thursday, I'll reassess and see how I feel then.

One of the many things I love about sobriety is the fascination I now have with the condition of being human. We're all so incredible and unique … I feel so blessed to be given this chance to get to know me and all you other awesome humans.

Congratulations to everyone celebrating a milestone today and love to everyone. 24 more for me please xxx

Creative people often become in touch with sort of another emotional plane, I believe, that most can’t reach. I think that’s why they are able to produce art that touches a chord with people, and also why they are often subject to depression, addiction, and other maladies that stem from or are fed by our emotional beings. Quite the double edged sword. You, however, seem have the understanding of yourself to harness the creative and resist the negative!
