Interesting book
Posted On 04/27/2009 09:35:15 by Nia

A Path with Heart, Jack Kornfield. Bantam books, c.1993

In essence one suggested exercise: - go into a room, put a

chair in the center, open the doors and windows, take the one seat and see who comes to visit......your only job is to stay in your seat. ( p.31)

This reminded me of something I did at the end of an emotional battle I had in early sobriety- I had ranted and raved at myself, prayed, cried and generally drained everything out of my system one Sunday...

New opportunity
Posted On 04/22/2009 07:22:12 by Nia

A new job begins today- please allow me to be up to the work- I am not 20 any more!!!

'God has brought me to it-' please may he bring me safely through it! I am unsure what this nursery work will entail- shifting a lot of merchandise

plants and flats- we shall see if they have a system I can figure out....

send me a prayer- thanks!

  We are going to a family function today- A renewal of vows sevice, for one

a good life-

   I got to stay at my brothers house (and had offered it to others in our group)at first they loved the idea- then backed out and went to the hotel...I was dissapointed- but

in retrospect- it turned out -I needed a break from togetherness !

   Emotionally I was actually felt 'hung over' on Sunday morning- (fuzzy,sleep... Read More



A Sunny Sober Saturday
Posted On 04/04/2009 16:48:33 by StevieRay1964

Today is a warm, breezy, sunny day.  After a lot of rain and depression-centered thoughts during it, the sun has seemed to make Sobriety a great place to be.  I am new to this site, but not new to recovering...I am happy for every day I can truly say I am sober.  I know that powerlessness leads me to my Higher Power, who asks me to turn it over...sounds simple?  Not really...I still have choices. 

Today, I choose sobriety...not dark despair of where I used to... Read More
