Do You Just Want To Be Right ...........

Do you just want to be right or do you want Recovery?

It seems from some of the posts and locked threads that many just want to read their own words and justify them. We all have different ideal's about recovery and how to acheive that goal. I got clean by using the NA method but I do respect how others manage their own recovery and sobriety. Everyone has something to offer here and if we read real close we may find things that will help us get thru one more day clean and sober. You know it shows when a person is truly in recovery..........and it took me a long time to learn that. I just wish that we could offer hope and inspiration to others who come here needing to hear that message instead of all the arguing. Life's just too short to be constantly up in arms. The negativity damages you more than the receiver.

Thanks for listening.

God bless,

Sharon

Paula,

Congradulations. Babies are wonderful. We are getting a new baby boy ourself on November 3rd. I can't wait. My son Robbie and his wife Leslie are so excited. They are going to make wonderful parents. We know the date because she has to have a C-Section @ 7:30 am Thursday.

God bless,

Sharon
I cant tell you how many times I have been asked that ? in recovery and it makes so much sense to me Would you rather be right or happy?Well most of us want both but we cant have both so if I have to choose it is definitely happy!!!! Thanks for the pleasant thread we can definitely use them!!!

Hi, my son, Jake turns ten on Nov.3. I also chose his birthday and wrote him a letter a few days before that. I'm going to give him the letter when he becomes a dad. He is the coolest scorpio you could ever meet. He's an old soul, wise, straight up, to the point and kind.

If your grandson is anything like my son, then he also sounds like he's alot like you.

I liked your post. :-)
hello sweety ..long time no hear,,,hows your sis doing? well I hope well off to bed its1..00 here in portland ,you have my prayers ,,happy grandmothering....love you angel poopie
Sharon,

It's so good to see you posting.

In answer to your question, I just want to be right with myself.

And now, I have to go put TIES on the boys. I have a suspicion it would be easier lassoing a couple of calves, lol.

Have a lovely weekend.

Love, Gina
