After we had sobered up thru the aa program,we gradually began to get a peace of mind and serenity we never thought possible.This peace of mind is based on a feeling that fundamentally all is well. That does not mean that all is well on the surface of things.Little things can keep going wrong and big things can keep on upsetting us. But deep down in our hearts we know that everything is eventually going to be alright., now that we are living sober lives.Have I achieved a deep down inner calm?

Perfect timing Billy! After weeks of.....um.....I guess I can call it...just......anger & irritability, that feeling began to lift this weekend and I finally felt calm.

I just told my friend yesterday that I finally feel as though I am not in charge & everything's really gonna be okay. :) I've never felt this way before, but I like it. Calm is good....very, very, very good.

Good morning/afternoon/evening all!
