Love From A Power Greater Than Me

 As I go along in Recovery I need to remember how rough life was before and early on as I became a self-diagnosed alcoholic and drug addict plus my mental illnesses had been diagnosed by a psychiatrist. I found it all hard to swallow and stomach. Today, some nearly 28 years into successful Recovery what I seem to think are tough problems I compare to the truely rough spot I came from. I can see how problems I now have are nothing but inconveniences. I didn't get into Recovery to be miserable, but know better than to relapse when problems occur in my life. To act out negatively will make only a harder life to have to live through. My recent problems will get worked out and get solved. I must not do anything stupid and I know whst stupid is. I actually have a good life and every life will have problems. With help I solve these small problems and then am rewarded with a proper feeling of satisfaction. Life is a series of solving problems and feeling damn good about it all!
