Wonderful Birthdays
Posted On: 04/25/2008 09:38:41

On April 29, 2008, I will be 6 months old. April 29th is 4 days from now....I can't plan that, because I can only live A Day At A Time. Last night, at my meeting, we celebrated not one, but two wonderful birthdays. "S" had turned 6 and "B" had turned 2. Next week, we have someone celebrating their 16th birthday. I draw much strength from these milestones, but I don't think that I will reach them. Why? Because that would be planning for the future, I can't plan for the future, because I don't know what tomorrow will bring. I used to have plans, dreams and schemes of something big on the horizon.....disappointment, of my own making, was what usually occurred. I keep a small amount of, I feel, healthy fear of going back to the Pit. So, I'll just continue on the path that leads me to a "better way of life".

It's great to have plans, as long as they are attainable.

6 months is a great accomplishment. I too, thought the same at about that same time frame. That perspective has changed a little for me since then.
     I expect that I will reach a milestone, given that I remain in recovery and continue to do the next indicated thing. Not necessarily something I am looking at as an accomplishment, more as a continuing indication that I am living, doing and growing up.
    These are good things...
