There is hope in sobriety
First off, I had no hope at all. I am only two months sober but my hope is really strong. I feel much better mentally and physically. I know that if I stay sober life will be better, happier, and more fulfilling. I can say that I have faith in what this program can do. Family will continue to get closer and closer to me as I continue to spiritual quest. I hope that my family will understand that I am sick and I need to continue to grow. I hope that I can keep on this road to sobriety. It takes time to get there and it won’t happen in six months or a year. I know I will have a clear mind and continue to grow in every way.
I hope that my friends can understand that I have a problem and support me. If not I am going to have to make new friends. I am very happy and understand my higher power. I have faith and hope that I can do it this time. It’s not fun and joy all the time, there are bad days you can’t get up on your high horse or else you will fall. I am trying to have more hope in my life about this whole sobriety thing. The fog is clearing and I can understand that it’s not going to get better unless I put in the work for it to get better. I hope when I leave here I can have the family relationship that I want.
I hope that sobriety will be able to help me hold a job and be able to be happy and love life to the fullest. I am starting to see the light but just a beam. I hope to have a nice family and be able to support them and make on from all this. I hope that sobriety will help me through this legal stuff. Sobriety is scary and it is hard to change everything that I knew and how to survive in that kind of environment. Sobriety is a whole new way of life. It is a new way of thinking, a new way of living that is really hard to change that. Through this journey of mine it was very hard to turn over my will to something greater than me.
I hope that my connection with my higher power continues to grow. I hope that after all of this I can be able to function without drugs. I know if I continue with back to basics I will be able to. I know I will find myself and be able to get a year and continue to get more and more spiritually in touch with myself. I would like to get back with my family and be able to show them that I want to be part of them. That is going to take work but I am willing to put in that work.
