7 weeks clean and sober

Today is 49 days- 7 whole weeks!

I am in AA and have a sponsor and am starting step 4. I have been enjoying life sober, but have had many hurdles. Last week I finally turned it over to G-d and have been praying (I tend to forget to do it regularily, but am getting better) and ever since that my life has been calmer and dare I say it...easier- more managable.

Here's to another 24!

What I have praying for the most is openess- to let me give love unconditionaly, and receive love unconditionaly. I feel like my heart has been like a walnut and needs the shell to be cracked open. I could use some softening up inside.

I don't think that's a bad thing to ask for aeo.
