Gidday All
Just a lazy ole day in Hoki and after some emailing i was just thinking how after awhile in my recovery it isnt about the alcohol that craving went in the first 2 years.
As i travelled in the journey my other addictions and old habits started to stand and look for attention(bad pun really) as sex was one of themLOL
Once alcohol was removed these other background companions of my drinking needed addressing and some still do, that is why it is called recovery
The one constant is that i am forever being given valuable life skills and learning from all the contact i have via AA, non AA at home and people here on the boards.
And also the longer i stay sober the more i discover Me and the more i have to address any issues because i used to bury them with alcohol and more drama now i can only bury something within and if that is a negative then my spirituality is threatened, every day away from alcohol is another day closer to Me.
Gratitude is and always will be a major foce in my life and i have to allow that gratitude to spread to all my fear centres and to do this i have to talk and listen more to every thing(higher power) and one in my life:)
My life is not perfect(in my eyes and mind at times) and as i grow i realise i do not want perfection i just want more of the peace i now have, and when i was drinking that meant only death.
Peace will come in my life, if i work at it in all areas and stay open, listen, be positive, sober and gratefull.
Keep sharing your E.S.H on these boards because this alky is learning heaps:)

As the journey progresses I have to be more honest with others and type more of what is happening with me, because it is easy i think for all of us to see ourselves in others and offer solutions, yet it is bloody hard for me at times to put the legwork into the solution for myself.
