Title (Dublin Core)

Sober Living

Description (Dublin Core)

I am residing in a sober living house following rehab for alcoholism. My sober date is Feb 14 - and I have been living in a house of ten ASICS in recovery now for 6 weeks.

I will say after 40 plus years of drinking, and now one day at a time, lessons learned in rehab and recovery are coming in very handy.

We start every day with a 7 am iremote 12-step meeting, and since being under ‘house arrest’ have had plenty of time to meet informally, prepare meals, and walking - my primary exercise now.

I notice the overflowing recycle bins when walking - had I not sought treatment for my alcoholism I would no doubt be living a bottle 24x7 during the last month or so, since my work has ground to a halt.

I think we were deluded in thinking we used to know what tomorrow and the future would bring. Know we know we don’t have a clue, and never really did.

It’s out of our control!

I am a huge fan of the serenity prayer, and recommend it to all - including my agnostic friends!

God,
Give me the serenity to,accept the things I cannot change,
Courage to change the things I can,
And the wisdom to know the difference.

One day at a time!

I with you peace and serenity!
