Each and everyday I am reminded of the most important thing in my life and that’s for me to stay sober today. It outweighs all else in the world. I must never forget this.
That’s one of the reasons I attend meetings. To be reminded of why I am here. Hopefully they will discuss this. Our staying sober a day at a time.
I always remember my old sponsor and his wife. And then all those old timers from back then. They taught me things I still am able to remember. But, whenever I drifted off, they would bring me right back to the moment and why I was here. I owe them so much and have to remember to be grateful.
And all this reminds me of parts of my life I need to remember and practice. And that’s compassion and love for others, especially all the help I was given, which helped me to remain sober and get into and grow in this way of life.
Of course the huge part of this is our spiritual way of life, which my sponsor and his wife kept me on track. And I can never forget that Second Step where I found my Higher Power, which helped me to begin to change and grow up, which I so desperately needed. I need to say thanks to my Higher Power and all those, who led me along these lines to peace and happiness.
