Took the day off today. Iām sitting in my backyard listening to the birds chirp. Woke up refreshed naturally at 8am. My guts donāt hurt, my head isnāt spinning, I donāt feel shame, and Iām truly happy!
If I was drinking I would still be in bed, not want coffe, not be able to eat and just want to avoid everything and everyone. Drinking takes so much awayā¦ā¦
I love being sober. Iām so grateful for today and all the days to come.
Happy Friday everyone!!

Life is good, I can not complain at all. Compared to where I was 20 months ago, it is like night and day. I now have the desire to take on some difficult life challenges that I have been just sweeping under the rug for 30+ years. I have the willingness, the courage, the support to look into some very dark closets that is huge progress. In 20 months I have graduated highschool, I have finished a full set of NA steps, I have been blessed with two amazing sponsees and I have a new recovery family that fits as a perfect extension to the blood family I have. Everyday is a gift to me and I know how hard I have to work daily to keep what I have. None of this shit will stay this way if I try to relax and act like I am a ānormieā now. I have tried thatā¦ and I failed miserably.
One of my sponsees is feeling that new to recovery boredomā¦ she said she was afraid to be normal. I quickly assured her that I couldnāt promise her much but I could definitely promise her she would never be a ānormieā. She chuckled with relief. I am so grateful for the people who have been put into my life, I honestly am learning so much. There was a day about 20 years ago where I made a bold statement. " I never want kidsā¦ the only people who are supposed to have children are the people who need to learn something in life." About 5 years later I was trying to get pregnant not because I thought I needed to learn anything but because I wanted to get clean. I was blessed with a beautiful child who is on the spectrum, who teaches me DAILY. I was humbled very quickly when she was born and for every day after that as my addiction taught me lesson after lesson.
So yeah compared to where I was 20 months ago it is night and day but compared to where I was 20 years agoā¦ I feel like I have lived lifetimes. Grateful for my life and all my experiences good and bad.
Congrats on your recovery everyone.

Night check in. Concertgebouworkest, our national symfonic orchestra plays Dam square in the heart of town, hoping for a new start after the shutdown of everything cultural the last 18 monthsā¦ Work got me tickets. Sometimes the managers do something good. Love from Amsterdam. .

@Beccy81 Four days is great. Sounds like youāre keeping your mind focused. Great job!
@pinkcloud 1 week is awesome! Great job! And also on the skin picking thing too.
@Tomek
In truth, you are the only thing you truly own and can control. When all else around you falls away, you are what you will be left with. Hang in there and just keep remembering that you canāt control how your parents feel and behave. I know itās going to be hard, but you have this.
@Charlie_C Hey hey! 300 days! Fantastic!
@CueBall8n9 Good job on your 7 days. Youāre doing wonderful.
@anon53116147 Itās good to see you on the path again. You can do it.

Eerlijkā¦ ik begon de post toen ik te horen kreeg dat er een mooi mens zal sterven, ik ben er gelukkig om, want dat wil frenky, een bijzondere opa die ik in een ziekenhuis ooit tegenkwam. zijn energie en warmte in het donker hebben me huilend gered. Het raakt me want hij is zo mooi. Vannacht gaat de pomp drop ā¦ Ik wil zo graag bellen maar ik durf niet. Zoveel te vertellen.
Ik moet op bed.
Bless
