I’m grateful for a day of adventure and even mischief. I’m grateful for a really busy week. I’m grateful knowing that my best is enough. I’m grateful for a beautiful Fall day. I’m grateful for ease and peace. I’m grateful to be sober today.
LAST WEEK ON TFLMS:
Breakfast with an Alcoholic: Episode 2
In this episode, we go through Bill’s Story in more detail, and we find aspects of the story that mirror our own. It was finally seeing that Bill’s Story was just like my story that opened the door for me to finally get sober. We discuss all that and more, including a failed coup attempt by the sponsees during the Alcoholic Lightning Round.
How Bill's Story Helped Me Get Sober
A funny thing happened. As I really let those words linger in my head, I began to realize that this was my story, too. I began to see that despite the different contexts and eras, the thought process, the distorted view of myself, the fear and envy, these were all things that I knew very, very well. Bill W. expressed himself differently than I would have, but we had a lot of the same realizations
Bloom Where You Are Planted
I'm grateful for pushing myself to be of service even though I was feeling a bit off. I'm grateful for recording one of my higher elevation gains during my daily run. I'm grateful for being able to make and keep commitments in sobriety. I'm grateful for knowing what is and is not in my control, and choosing healthy decisions based off of that understanding. I'm grateful for my fellow volunteers sharing delicious snacks while phonebanking - it provided a much-needed mental boost. I'm grateful for the amazing resources easily available these days that help me fill out my ballot in an informed way, especially when it comes to the myriad of props / amendments we have here in Colorado. I'm grateful for the chilly weather letting me layer up to my heart's delight. I'm grateful for AA providing me the life tools to actively embrace pathways for peace instead of drama and instability.
