Thank you for coming back and sharing again Hippie Girl. We do this one day at a time. When we live life a day at a time and live in the moment, we don't get so overwhelmed, and we can learn to manage our life. My life is unmanageable when managed by me.

I get up in the morning, ask the God of my understanding to lead, guide and direct me through this day, help me to stay clean and sober and give thanks at night. When I come to a stumbling place, a moment of anxiety, a moment of doubt, etc. I say the Serenity Prayer. When I pause, the Good Orderly Direction will come through, if it doesn't than it generally means, the time isn't right and the answer is no, not right now. Things unfold as they should, not always as I would have them be.

Freedom from active addiction, what a wonderful gift. Freedom to be ourselves! An even greater gift, the 12 Steps to aid us to heal and recover and let go of the past to obtain that freedom.
