Kennybunk port is a great place too, had some fun up there before! I lived in Canaan for a few years, too rural for me though.

Ya Kenny is really nice too! Some places up there are really rural… sometimes why I like it! Get away from the nonsense and people :joy: but I probably couldn’t live there.

My recovery isn’t something that I could have done without support either & I’m not someone who was able to ask for help very easily. That emotional wall that I worked so hard to build for so many years was solid! Congratulations to you for being brave enough to reach out! It’s not easy!

I kind of think of TS like bike drafting. We’re all here, doing our own pedaling, but some days the hill is too steep, and just reading about someone else’s success or spirit or motivation gets me past a rough patch (craving on a day of limited internal reserves). Feels like we take turns leading the pack and we share the load just by showing up and sharing our sobriety.
Good luck at AA! Great to have you back.

Day 927
Yesterday I deleted my Twitter account after using it for almost 6 months. I was too often and too long online. In every free minute I checked the news there. Often it made me kinda sad bc the ppl on there could be real devils to each other. Too much nudity and way too often I see how they glorify alcohol. For me this became a pool full of sharks. So I quit.
I’m okay today. Time to start reading more books I guess :sweat_smile:
2 days of work ahead, then: holiday for 2 weeks :partying_face:
Have a beautiful sober day friends :heart:

Oh good, arriving at that feeling of serenity is so wonderful :sparkles::woman_in_lotus_position:

I find I go in cycles and each time the discoveries I make seem less profound, but in a good way… A reminder of something familiar and a return to a foundation that feels more solid each time.

Thank you so much dear. To be honest it makes me feel ill, but it’s also a relief in some ways. People can be total jerks but that’s never all they are. Some change some doesn’t. As you said the only thing we can do something about is ourselves,and that’s why we’re all here. Focusing on our own hapiness trying to create something better, trying to move forward. I’ve always been a happy person, and I’m really glad to be here with all of you :cherry_blossom::heart:

I chose to cycle. It was a kind gesture, I wasn’t forced or anything. And cycling isn’t a bad thing
