Today I am still grateful that I know who and what I am. But still I have hard time working a program daily hourly and sometimes just for that second. But I know that if I do what I have been told I will be fine. Work my program, and pray and ask for God's direction not Steve's and i will be fine. I will be GREAT.
I keep coming back to the sober blogs and miss some very good friends that where here when I started 2 years ago. I miss their voices, their lives their guidance. One can only assume that they where not convinced of their dezee. I am convinced I am an alcoholic and don't want or need to go back out to try that test. I do sometimes wonder if i need those 3 meeting a week, talking to my sponsor, meeting with him one on one to read the Big book. Then I travel for a week or two and I can't even live with myself, but expect others too. Get Real.
Next Sunday I have been asked to share my experience Strength and hope at the meeting that was my very first AA meeting. Many have seen me transformed into what I am today. The one who asked me to speak we will call Fred, said I was there at your first meeting seen you struggle Thur treatment, and grow thru the program. Wow how could I say no. I guess i have, and i continue to grow as long as I leave my mind open to teaching.
Peace hugs and Kisses
Steve

Good to see a post...work that program!
Hi. Got your comment and I am good. I am glad to see you posting again and was delighted to hear from you. How are you? I think of you often, even though I don't read as many blogs as I did before but have decided to do more in the New Year. I have been writing poetry, one of them won a contest and I invented a new poetry form. It has been an outlet for me.
I don't know if this wil add any perspective, but at 5 1/2 years sober, I still go to 12-14 meetings EVERY week. Have done since I got sober.
Some ARE sicker than others, eh?
Thanks for the visit...things have been busy so blogging has been zilch. Things are going well -- yesterday was hubby's birthday -- big 32. He has been going to AA since a week before Thanksgiving and has become active in our church. Patience is said to be a virtue and it has been paying off by waiting on him. Thanks for your comments. Feel free to leave messages anytime -- I have them sent to my email. Glad you are still doing well... Renee www.3xblessed.com
