"Today I Accept_______________"
 
Tia:
That I am a true alcoholic/addict
That I need to keep away from the negativity my family indulges in at least in early sobriety
That only I am responsible for my actions and emotions
That if I do nothing nothing will change
That I have a purpose in life and was chosen to live that out
That I can help others just by showing up and being honest about who I am



Id love to hear what others accept today:ring

Today I accept that I can never ever touch a single drop of alcohol again...In the last 8 months I have got a good job,bought a new car,got my weight back up to a healthy level,got fit and put a bit of muscle on and I have finally started to enjoy life without booze...I accept that 1 drink can take all that away from me.....Steve.

I accept that I have not seen things as they really were at any time in the past 10 years.
I accept my brain is going to drive me crazy trying to reorganize everything.

Today I accept that although I am sober I am not perfect.
I accept my role in a troubling situation and understand that I may have done or said some things that upset another.
I accept that life is life, sober or not, and how I choose to handle that is my choice.
I accept that sometimes others are sick and I cannot rationalize their behavior.
I accept that I am still ashamed of my drinking, no matter that it has been just shy of a year, and when life requires me to revisit my drinking years I am going to feel that shame.
I accept the things I cannot change and now have the wisdom to know the difference. Most of the time ;)

I accept that I deserve to be loved by me!
