Today I woke up feeling very well. Did a little cleaning and my laundry. got a message from a freind that no longer wants to be freinds. Disapointing abit, but I've decided that I want to push on. Last night I decided to throw myself a little harder into my recovery. I noticed that I was getting side tracked by someone elses problems, and I can't let that happen. This person has been talking to other people that know nothing of me, yet they give advice. I've experienced this in the past, and there is nothing you can really do in that kind of situation. When people get hurt they seek out people that agree with what they want to hear. Meanwhile the person knows absolutely nothing of the real situation. They tell you in recovery to not give advice. Oh, how we loved to do that. Trouble is that most of the time people really don't know what they are talking about. Even working here at the ceter, I have to bite my tongue plenty when people discuss their relationships. I want to tell them what I would do, but I've learned that they have to make their own decisions and choices. I am glad that I am here. Each day is another chance to grow. I, ve decided to that I am going to meet new people on this site and get more involved in some of the topics and discusions. I find that they can be really helpful. Last night I tried out some and I felt really good. I honestly shared some of the things in my life, and found it was good. I don't have a fear now of people knowing who or what I am. This lady at the meeting last night told me about this other site in A.A. that her group sponsors. I'de like to check it out, but I'm not going to only have my recovery evlve around computers. We need to remember that we are human and human contact is also important to us. I thank you Lord for the peace and understanding that you give me.

for the fact i have not talked about you except for one person.. and you were aware of that... just because someone does not know you does not mean the advice is bad... i am glad you have moved on.. and i don\'t always agree with those who agree... those that understand yes, but not because they agree.. take care james
