Life in Recovery

I’m grateful for:

  1. My Clean Date (02/21/2023). Without it and without cherishing it more than anything and everything else, nothing is possible.

  2. The NA meeting that my friend and I just left because I got 5 God shots in that meeting. It was incredible.

  3. The beautiful, overcast weather that refrained from raining so I could walk the 3½ miles to the meeting with my friend.

  4. Another buddy who’s graduating, tomorrow, from the same Intensive Outpatient Treatment and Recovery Mentor Program that I did. And I get to attend them both.

  5. Another overcast, nearly full moon night along the downtown Portland waterfront. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful.

Grateful? Me? Heck yeah, I am! 5 things, you say? Well, then…I am grateful for:

  • My Clean Date (02-21-2023)

  • Hope Not Dope, the meeting I just left

  • This brisk, beautiful, last night of September

  • The ability to walk home 5.2 miles from the meeting I just left (piece o’ cake!:wink::crazy_face:)

  • Music for my walk’s soundtrack

:v:t2::heart::metal:t2:

Update: it took me 1 hours & 50 minutes to walk 5.2 miles. Not bad but, certainly, not great. :man_shrugging:t3:
