Real Recovery: It's Official --The Holidays are Over

WELCOME Hi There, this blog will be about what I believe to be REAL RECOVERY not band aids or feel good BS These are the hard cold true facts that I have learned and been taught by OLD TIMERS and People WHO HAVE REMAINED CLEAN and SOBER and "GOT A LIFE".There will be no original thoughts here, Because in essence there are no original thoughts only perhaps originals and/or different ways to present or illustrate old Ideas.Now that this is understood lets get to the heart of the matter. Recovery is not about coddling or enabling. IT IS LIFE CHANGING. PERIOD WELCOME to the hardest thing that you will do in YOUR LIFE. Make no mistake, Real recovery is not EASY, it is simple, very simple, Yet you will make it hard, as all before you have. Also let's get this STRAIGHT right off the top. REAL RECOVERY has nothing to do about ALCOHOL and/or Drugs. IT IS about the way you react to life, your perceptions, and YOUR actions. Alcohol and/or Drugs are just a symptom of YOUR disease. Take notice of the word DISEASE - Which in our case translates to ILL AT EASE or simply not at ease, which is the basic nature of our problem and answer to our solution.Back to why I state that this is the hardest thing you will do. I state this because Real Recovery Will challenge everything you know/believe or really what you think you know, Because you really don't know SHIT or you wouldn't need recovery. It will make you face the truth about your biggest problem YOU and YOUR THINKING. You will face the real you not the one we would like to see with all the justifications and rationalizations just the TRUE YOU.REMEMBER GOD DOES NOT CREATE GARBAGE >>>>>>>> If you have a request or enquiry Please Email me at wiledchild@live.ca I'd like to add one other thing here for all those who read this Blog. It's something that was taught to me That was invaluable to my recovery My Spiritual Advisor Taught me this. Don't believe a word I say , do not take what I say as the truth just because I say it or anybody else, for that matter. Check it out for yourself. Try it on for size. Investigate , find out for YOURSELF only use what you have read or heard as a reference point. Find the truth out for yourself . This way it is your TRUTH not someone else's. You will also not be believing a lie or untruth if you always check things for yourself . Do not believe everything you are told or read without checking it out.

It's Official --The Holidays are Over

Well it is now official in our household. Today we took down all the Christmas decoration, the lights, the tree, all of it. All packed in the boxes, taped up and stored away for another year. It is a bittersweet time for the family at this time; no I think it is bittersweet for me. It seems the rest of the family is fine with it; it is I that has the hard time finally saying good bye to the holidays. I’m the one who wants to hold on to the last. I love the whole idea of The Christmas Holidays, all the aspects of it, the sharing the good feelings, the festive idea of giving, family, sharing Peace on Earth, all the little and big ideas and what not surrounding the whole holiday season. Yes I’m totally aware that part of it is an escape of reality of the world we live in and the fantasy of a better more loving tolerant world. A world I wished we lived in rather than the harsh, stark reality of the world that actually exists. However I still believe that it can be better. This better world starts with me, I need to be a better person on a daily basis, applying the principles this wonderful program has taught me. Doing what is right and what is right in front of me on a daily basis and maybe just maybe I can pass that on to another, and perhaps another, and then they can do the same. Oh what a wonderful dream. Anyways as I said back to the real world, practicing these principles In All My Affairs, daily.
Remember God does not create garbage.
