Today has been a challenge. My case Mr. O and I, went to a meeting Friday and he fills a room! After 13 years of sobriety he relapsed. It has been difficult for him to accept starting all over in sobriety. When we process the experience there is more than one way to do so. A) It can be such a negative experience that he never gets above it and dies due to the disease or, B) he can learn from the experience , accept responsibility for the decisions and choices he made and practice this program of recovery?
We never have only one choice! Making the best choice at the time of decision is the key! This is where our recovery board comes into play!
We have a sponsor(if you don’t , get one ASAP!) Then you have meetings, meetings, and more meetings! Professionals of every flavor and a family who will not reject you no matter how bad you messed things up! Be Honest, Open and Willing to recover! That is the HOW of recovery! Ask in most any meeting and the elders will help you find it! Mr. O is sober since 1-8-07 and I am proud of him! Any of us can succeed in this program! I pray it will be you also!
Good Health and Be Blessed!
