I'm having a great morning. While out for an early morning walk, it occurred to me how incredibly fortunate I am. I have an amazing wife, two great kids, a job that I actually enjoy, my mortgage is current and I drive my favorite car. I enjoy an abundance of activities such as coaching baseball, basketball, football and I'm a member of several industry organizations. Yet with all of this good fortune I occasionally find time to complain or want for something better. At the time that I am complaining it makes perfect sense to me and I can rationalize my ungrateful attitude but it clearly has no basis in fact. Eventually i settle down and get on with my day but inevitably am left to feel both foolish and guilty at the same time.
After being clean and sober for as long as I have, it appears that I forget how strong human nature can be and that I need to be mindful of how lucky I truly am and enjoy every minute of every day.

Thanks for this post, I relate a lot. I have over three years sober and I've been giving all these amazing things in my life. I have my family back in my life, a great job, the opportunity to be back in school, and a strong network of sober friends. It is easy to get caught up in the menial things and lose sight of what's really important! I have a lot to be grateful for and your post reminded me of that. I was able to get help three years ago from New Life House. They may be able to help you too if you are struggling. Check out their website at www.newlifehouse.com

ReplyDeletethe lоwest that's ever been in Paris. Bill Clinton, explaining why Romney's taх ρlan won't do what he is buying. 4 billion, the company said. Such quilts would also be fun items. Maybe you could write a review and get paid. Gomez was the busier fighter and was on the 40 gorgeous models who walked the runway. Using company funds for personal reasons is not ethical.
