I went to a meeting last- night and this afternoon. It was a few of the same people, but last-night there was a guy who came to his first meeting. He was sad and trying to get his head around everything. Today he spoke at the step meeting I went to. I said he had a buisness, a wife and kids and all that is gone. He lived in the woods in his truck for the last month. OK, that was all he had to say, because I am feeling bad for myself because my dogs don't want to poop on command and the house I am is not quite up to par for me. Granted I need to get a job and stuff, but I DID NOT have to live in the woods in a truck!!!
I need to grow up and come to terms with my reality!! I live somewhere new, for now, it is only temporary. I will find a job. I WILL GET OVER MYSELF and not have a pity party for myself. I need to put in the work, but just like my sobriety, I have to work it to make it!!!!
You are amazing .....you really are! I am so enamored by your strength and courage. It's best to remember that there is always someone else in a far worse place than us...this too shall pass sweetie - before you know it, you will have a brand new life, brand new friends, a brand new job, etc., etc.....it's a journey of new things to come.....and you deserve it more than anyone I know. Love ya sweetie and keep on workin it - you're doin great!
