180 X 24

180 x 24 hours = 6 months!

Being alive and sober today is a miracle. Six months ago I was hovering between life and death. Somehow, in some way that I may never understand, I stopped fighting and became willing-- willing to do the work, willing to take suggestions and willing to go to any lengths. I am not just sober today, but recovering thanks to a power a whole lot greater than myself and a bunch of angels masquerading as drunks and addicts.

Thanks angels.

Phinny, I have followed your progress since you have been at SR and it is so amazing to see those changes taking place. This is truly a miracle in action!! I'm so glad that you found your way to the other side. Thank you for being a friend to many, including me. You are so special and I hope you know just how blessed we are to share the path of recovery with you.

Thanks, family. The secret ingrediant in recovery is the love of one alcoholic/addict for another.

I feel that love today and I am humbled.
