trudging my road of happy destiny

January 10

Good morning,
This morning I’m feeling good. I enjoyed our women’s meeting last night and love it when I get to go in person and don’t need to zoom it. I feel that I am at a crossroad in my life as far as what to do with the rest of my life/work career. I know I need to make some changes just like when I first got sober. They told me that I don’t have to change anything except for everything. I feel that today it may not be everything I need to change, but a few bigger things. I’m hoping to keep this shorter today for you guys. I know that I am very long-winded. Today will be a wonderful day spending time with sisters in sobriety. Today I feel blessed that I’ve been asked to go and participate in activities with other women in the program. For me the biggest hurdle in my recovery is to stop looking to outside of myself for approval from others. I’m not sure I’ll ever have that character defect licked. But, today, I know that I am a work in progress, and that nothing is insurmountable in my life today as long as I stay sober. I have loved my Insight Timer meditations the last couple of days. They have been wonderful and definitely have me thinking about creating that space for joy and laughter to happen, which means I have to clean up my studio. This morning I am grateful for my willingness to do the things I need to do to stay sober one day at a time. I am thankful for my warm home and having enough food to eat. I am thankful for those little things that I take for granted every day. I am thankful that my hand is healing nicely. Lastly I am thankful for you, and those like you that take the time to read my check-ins and my writing.
Have a wonderful day and know that I am thinking of you and am praying for more love and peace in our country.
Love Me
