24 Hours A Day May 6 AA Thought for the Day I’ve noticed that the ones who do the most for AA are not in the habit of boasting about it. The danger of building myself up too much is that, if I do, I’m in danger of having a fall. That pattern of thought goes with drinking. If one side of a boat gets too far up out of the water, it’s liable to tip over. Building myself up and drinking go together. One leads to the other. So if I’m going to stay sober, I’ve got to keep small. Have I got the right perspective on myself? Meditation for the Day The way sometimes seems long and weary. So many people today are weary. The weariness of others must often be shared by me. The weary and the heavy-laden, when they come to me, should be helped to find the rest that I have found. There is only one sure cure for world-weariness and that is turning to spiritual things. In order to help bring about the turning of the weary world to God, I must dare to suffer, dare to conquer selfishness in myself, and dare to be filled with spiritual peace in the face of all the weariness of the world. Prayer for the Day I pray that I may be a help to discouraged people. I pray that I may have the courage to help bring about what the weary world needs but does not know how to get.

1 year and 8 months without a drink. Feeling very grateful today to have made it this far. The difference in my life and myself as a person is huge and I wouldn’t be here without Stepworks in London. I may not have stayed sober when I left, but it’s everything I learned during my time there that got me where I am today. I have no desire to touch alcohol again. The trials and tribulations I have faced in the last 20 months, and to have not picked up a drink, has shown me that I WILL make it. Thank you 🤍

The great fact is just this, and nothing less: That we have had deep and effective spiritual experiences* which have revolutionized our whole attitude toward life, toward our fellows and toward God’s universe. The central fact of our lives today is the absolute certainty that our Creator has entered into our hearts and lives in a way which is indeed miraculous (p. 25).

I have to show some gratitude today to Stepworks of London, Stepworks of Nicholasville, my wife, kids,sister, brother in law and the company that is giving me a chance. 75 days ago I was lost in the madness of my addiction I had almost destroyed anyone or anything that I loved or loved me and after 25+ years of addiction and trafficking I only saw the same thing for what short life I had left. I never thought of my future or the future of my family. In my addiction I only went a day at a time and fuck the rest. Through all of that I damn near destroyed my marriage dcbs stepped in and took my kids from the home and I had no choice but to call my sister and brother-in-law who I had pretty much cut ties with because they didn't buy or sell drugs. I begged them to come get my 3 son's or they were going to Foster care without skipping a beat they were on their way to get my boys and bring them to there home of 4. After spending a couple days in jail my first thought was to go back home and smoke/shoot as much meth as I could hustle up after 3 or 4 days here my sister and brother-in-law came. My brother-in-law told me I was coming with them one way or another I thought of everything to try to not go. But I did and my wife and I checked into 2 different Stepworks which no doubt saved or lives. Today after doing the right things for a few months and joining the program we're both working paying taxes and about to move to the nicest place we've ever lived. I've started a job in a company that beliefs in second chances and after my background check everything is in the open and they even broke policy with the go ahead from the president from the the Japan plant. I feel blessed to have stumbled into not just a job but a career. They also do a lot of giving back to the community which is also good for my recovery

One day you will tell your story of how you've overcome what you are going through now and it will become part of someone else's survival guide.
