A Time To Listen and To Share

June 26, 2019

My Higher Power helped me tonight by introducing me to newcomers, and some old timers, so to speak, I met at Brentwood.

I am so grateful for the fellowship tonight. Listening and sharing I heard a common theme – recovery is not easy, but together we are doing it day by day.

Tonight I shared my fears as well as the insights I have gained over the last few days.

I am learning emerging triggers and why I am afraid of setting up boundaries.

Tonight, I also heard the fears of other members and now mine do not seem that large. They are still important to face, but a different perspective makes them less fearful.

I will be asking someone to be my sponsor on Friday.

Meditation and reflection are good, but they only take me so far.

Good night my friends, and before you close your eyes, think of something you are grateful for. ♥️

I left the hateful rhetoric of Facebook to come here to carry a message of hope and healing I'm in recovery from addiction and rebuilding a life filled with purpose and creativity. Whether I'm playing the piano, baking, gardening, or knitting, I’ve found healing in the simple, meaningful moments. Buzz Kill Diaries is where I share honest reflections on recovery - one day at a time.
