Congrats BassettDog and thank you Suze for remembering me today.
I am not feeling so well- deeply depressed and I just came out of the woods (hike) and I know the reason for my sadness, I’m just not sure how to let it all go.
Sometimes it seems that I prefer to choose pain that I already know over a new choice/ freedom from that pain.
What is it about familiar patterns that keep us locked up and unwilling to change?
Why am I holding so tightly to the pain of my past and the hate of my ex husband? When I could choose to release it all and create my own life.
I know it’s a lot I’ve laid on you. But this is where I am today. And of course, I am beyond grateful to be sober through it all. Because if I wasn’t, it would be a “drinking day”and not a “go into the woods and find your answers” day. Sigh.
Lots of love to all of you.
We can always choose something new, something different. It’s just a choice. Time to let go of the fear that is holding me back.

My sponsor used to say when I find a good reason to drink that he buy the liquor and sadly to say I didn’t find it yet 9 years and still going.
today is a good day for my granddaughter Athena spending the long weekend with me and by the time I go back to work I be more tired and picking other grandkids and going to swimming pool hope to have a lot of energy
please another 24 hours of sober life

I think the answer may be in the word "familiar".
Even when we are in pain, we often choose to stay stuck because it is somehow safer.
The unfamiliar is an unknown, and even if it is something we long for, it is still scary.
I am sorry you are having a difficult time love; here for you all the way.
