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.

So this isn’t directly related to recovery, but I just had coffee for the first time since being at Step Works. I had a latte with two whole double shots of espresso and I think I’m losing my mind

✌️🫶Thought for Today What worries you, masters you.  ~John Locke Master your FEAR, and the world is yours.   (thanks Stu K.) Life is such a precious thing    You are a miracle with every smile you bring    yes the sun will rise and set, that is a blessing from above    we all walk with hour glasses unsure of when we’ll go—so we love    yes love is life and life is full of love life      We make our own realities by being true to thine own self . so this is the way we strive to live   Life is such a precious thing . It is all in your perspective.   Michelle B.

May you grow up to be righteous May you grow up to be true May you always know the truth And see the lights surrounding you May you always be courageous Stand upright and be strong And may you stay Forever young

My 5th taught me that just because my pain is understandable doesn't make my behavior acceptable.

She pulls all the strings he hates his very being theres always something missing in his world that he can't see she controls his everymove he does what she says to do he doesn't have any choice she will make him use he knows it isnt right but doesn't put up a fight he always lets her win yeah the relationship is real tight it's always a one way street she keeps him down he sees he's beat he's about to give up he can't stand on his two feet once they had real fun but those time are forever gone he's gave all he can give now he don't think he wants to live times have got real tough and he needs a special touch so she picks him up real high and then lets him down agian it's hard for him to be as strong hasn't eaten in so long hes lost alot weight and she kicks him while he's down now he thinks he's loosing his mind His family tells him no that it's time for him to go she's caused him so much damage he hangs his head and cries the pain is so real this ain't the way he used to feel she used to make him happy now he's so sad he wants to die it's courage that he needs he's brave he starts to see he's got to let her go so he can change his life was she his friend or was she not seemed she always gave him a shot but once she took over she took up all his time but only when he sees how selfish she can be can he get the courage as he slowly starts to rise he must remain Soo brave he can do it day by day and as he gets his strength up there's a fire in his eyes he knows that it's ok he don't need her anyway and as he breaks her chains he screams out her name in anger she hears his pain he finally has the strength and he looks at her in the eyes and he finally gets the guts to tell crystal her goodbye

Thank God for another day clean and sober
