When I was still using-and even after several months of abstinenece-it seemed that much in my life was a struggle. Some days it took all I had to get through the day(or the hour). I didn't think I could do it.
But I held on (I guess I had faith). And these days I find myself feeling lighter. The obsession has truly been lifted and my emotional problems are manageable. I feel less vulnerable. I feel stronger in my program. I do not feel the fear as before. These days I feel more alive that I can scarecly remember. I sense that I can do what I need to do for my recovery. Slowly, the Promises that follow Step Nine are coming true.
Today I will thank my higher power for my progress and pray for deeper acceptance of my life.
