Motivation and meditation posts (Part 1)

I have been sober since 11-26-2019. I was really addicted to klonopin and trazadone for 4 months. I tried to commit suicide on 11-14-2019 I had just lost my fiance in October 31,2019 he died from a heart attack and a stroke. After he died my whole world came crashing down I started having problems with the adult estate that I was going to,and having a lot of family problems too. I felt like nothing really mattered to me anymore.

So far so good thank you for asking. We are still preparing to open so we are minimally staffed. It is weird usually things are much busier but I like the pace we are at now.

The daily calms seem to repeat each year, I’m sure I have posted this before but I figure it doesn’t hurt to post again. Especially at the moment - Coronavirus has been a stark reminder of the uncertainties in life. But they are always there, there is always change and we can learn to ride those waves. I am not a surfer but I imagine it involves a lot of falling off, especially to start with, and over time it gets easier to stay up for longer.

My intention for the day is to accept uncertainty when it arises, instead of resisting it.

Progress. Not perfection. One foot in front of the other, everyday, making better choices than we did before.

Good morning everyone. I want to thank everyone for their love and support over the last 3 years. It is because of God, AA, this forum and the people that I have met that I have been able to stay sober for 3 years today. It is not just staying sober but living a life that I didn’t think I could or deserved when I first got sober. God removed a lot from my life and at the time I did not know why and way angry. Fast forward 3 years later, they were things that were holding me back from a relationship with him and me reaching my full potential. I don’t have to carry such a heavy load anymore. If you are just starting out and seems hopeless, hang in there it does get better, you get better. Thanks for allowing me to share this and these posts every morning, they truly help keep me sober. You have all been apart of my journey and I thank you all from the bottom of my heart. Stay safe and sober.
