Journal Entry for February 20, 2008 Mood
Wednesday, February 20, 2008

Ok, I'm a bit slow at writing.  I've always known that but as I think about my life today there are things I want to change and yet things that I wouldn't change for the world.  I have found a new freedom and a new happiness that can only come from God and the gifts of living a sober life!!  As I've looked at some of your personal goals I've realized that I've been working on a few myself as of late.  One of the things I need to do is start trusting myself again.  You'd think after 21 years of sobriety I would get that but  I'm a slow learner and I must consider I've spent all of my life dealing with these insecure feelings that will not change over night....some keep telling me progress not perfection.  So I'll trust what I'm told.

Goals in my life is to continue making an attempt to grow up. I'm told that my age at the point of sobriety will be the same as the age of when I took my first drink...so I'm 13 years and growing!

I love this life and today I can learn to be kind to myself.
