Daily Reprieve

I’ve started a FAQ page, inspired by some of the questions my sister asked about recovery.  Check it out from time to time.  When I think of a question, I’ll load it on that page.  And I’ll do my best to answer it.  Understand that I am no guru.  If you find something to correct or can improve upon the answer, or if you have a question you would like me to include, just let me know. 

I went to a candlelight meeting tonight.  It occurred to me, I am actually developing friendships.  People recognize and welcome me, and I feel apart.  I belong.  We’re in this together.  I like that.  One of the pursuits of my drinking was to be more comfortable around others.  Instant intimacy.  The alcohol was the only thing I was developing a relationship with.  The people became incidental.  Now they have become essential.  Another essential for me is to get some sleep before going to work tomorrow.  Good night, and sleep well.
