The end of a couple of difficult weeks, I attended my collegue's funeral today.  It didn't help but I am glad she is now 'put to rest' and I can move on from that particular loss.

All the emotion of course triggered some very addictive thoughts and temptations which I almost gave in to and in the midst of that I deceived myself into thinking I was OK on my own and didn't need to ring my sponsor because he himself might be a temptation too.

This of course was utter rubbish and it would not have hurt me to ring him.  I agreed to ring him after the funeral.  I actually caught him in a bit of a sad mood too but after we had both talked and discussed a few things and made each other laugh and explained some stuff we both felt a lot better. For a start we both felt more cheerful, and we both got a much more healthy perspective on our problems and we both felt understood and we were amazed at how much our separate ideas and thoughts had helped one another (yes we have the same God) and we learned more about each other and our relationship and we agreed that we should meet up and discuss something soon.

So the moral to this?  Make that call. Cara

I am sorry for the loss of your collegue, but it is wonderful that you got through it... With the help of your sponsor.

Thank you for the reminder that I need to reach out also, instead of being stuck in my head!
