As I looked around the room, I was amazed at how two or three hundred people who obviously should not belong together could be having so much fun, especially when they all claimed to be clean and sober.
Hope, Faith & Courage Volume II, page 120
I would rather deal, feel, and heal today than numb and medicate. When I used drugs or other mind-altering substances, I did not grow, enhance, or develop my life, I just stagnated.
The great escape turned out to be the deceitful thief. Pursuing immediate gratification and avoiding life’s tough situations robbed me of the greatest treasures and pleasures, and I can no longer afford it.
I came to CA believing I was going to miss the effects produced by drugging my body. Little did I know, the party and fun was JUST about to begin! By living the C.A. way, I laugh louder, feel more deeply, and enjoy greater relationships. My life has purpose and meaning. I get to actually look forward with humble anticipation to what lies ahead.
Am I letting go of unproductive ideas and attitudes to fully grab onto healthier more rewarding ones which actually work in my life and my recovery? Today I will choose to grow through life, work the Steps, and enjoy this journey to its fullest.
