Day 315

Good morning!  My name is Lauren and I'm a grateful, recovering alcoholic/addict.  Today I look at things in a new light, more of the way they are supposed to be.  Before, I was looking at life through the bottom of a bottle.  My views were distorted from reality.  I was only thinking about me, how everything would affect me, how I only wanted to please myself.  I was so selfish.  My life was such a mess, but I made it that way.  It was finally time to clean house, and enjoy life.  I was looking at all the negative, thinking everyone was out to get me.  I wasn't looking at all the good around me, an amazing husband, 2 beautiful children, supportive parents, and other friends and family. Once I stopped looking at the world through that bottle, I was seeing it clearly, how blessed I really was.  Life is good, I have everything I need.  I have a roof over my head, food on the table, and a loving family.  I couldn't ask for more.  Today I thank God that He gave me that chance to see the way He wanted me to see.  Have a great day!
