A Sober Life

All animals, except man, know
that the ultimate of life is to
enjoy it.
– Samuel Butler

Today I choose to enjoy my life. Regardless of the problem and difficulties that this
day will bring, I have an inner joy that comes with my recovery from addiction. With a
clear head and body free from drugs and chemicals I can face today and look forward
to tomorrow. My life is to be enjoyed not endured. My worst days today are better
than my best days as an addict. Spiritually I am free because I have begun to
discover me. God can now be perceived in His world because I have sobriety.

———————————————————————————————————-

My routine used to be drink as late as posible & then pass out…Sleep as late as possible & come to

My first thought was “Oh God…not another day” I would then put on my flannel pants…Drive to the liquor

store & buy the next days supply…Everyday…Today I don’t do things that way anymore…I embrace life…

I don’t have to hide from the day with liquor & pills…The first thought in my head when I wake up is…

“Thank you God for another day” & I notice that I always seem to have a smile on my face when I wake up…

AA & my higher power(God) have made all this possible…especially now in the holiday season…Merry Christmas

to you…I enjoy life to it’s fullest…What used to be the worst time of the year for me is now one of the best…Sobriety

is wonderful & I recommend it to everyone…till next time…
