No time like the present
Posted On 08/29/2008 08:41:57 by Isiah491421
At any moment
I could start being a
better person -

But which moment
should I choose?


I went down to the Friday lunch-time Open Discussion Meeting (AA). On the way there, the usual thoughts went through my mind and I tried to combat them and change my attitude. 

The meeting has shrunk in attendence in the last few years, for whatever reasons. I often get annoyed when I go there because nobody seems to want to chair the meeting. There is a chairper... Read More



Uphill struggle with myself
Posted On 08/25/2008 06:26:45 by Isiah491421
You should always
be aware that your
head creates
your world.


I'm having one of those days where everything seems to be a struggle. Restless, irritable and discontent seems to be a very succinct description.

I slept much later than I usually do. It is in the morning hours, if I am still sleeping, that I have the most vivid dreams. I was dreaming that I used. I rationalized to myself, in the dream, that eating hash wasn't the same as smoking and therefore not reall... Read More



Fitting in

Love is
letting go
of fear.

Short and sweet. The sun is shining and I'm happy that Higher Power seems to need me again today.

Yesterday at the course, I was able to observe myself again with my little quirks. I was tired, having not had enough sleep. During the afternoon I did become slightly argumentative, impatient, childish and I did my "favorite" little trick of digging my heels in. Nothing too major. I noticed that some of the other participants noticed my reac... Read More



Health

The measure of mental health
is the disposition to find good
everywhere.


I just had two days off and today I go back to work. There is a definite shift in my attitude. I find myself feeling very calm this morning and even have an expectant aticipation about today. I think I will have an enjoyable day and I'm looking forward to seeing my work collegue again, who's very nice. I haven't seen her since last Friday week.

My mental health? Since I've been in recovery,... Read More



Saturday work
Posted On 08/16/2008 10:34:50 by Isiah491421
I went to work today. I haven't worked on a Saturday (except last week) for a couple of years now. I did have a certain reluctance to go, which is usual for me but I decided to change my attitude to one of expectancy and just go with the flow.

I enjoy the little shop, even though it is located near to some of my old haunts. It's on a small side street, which is very colourful, lots of Indian and Turkish shops, pavement cafés, lots of trendy up-and-coming concerns, a multitude of differen... Read More
