Day 324

Good morning!  My name is Lauren and I'm a grateful, recovering alcoholic/addict. In the past, I was too busy looking down and sulking in my self-pity and misery to notice all the good around me.  Now, looking up to see what is right in front of my face, I see the love that surrounds me.  The love than is undying and true.  Just realizing all that I do have, is more rewarding than any material thing.  When I looked down all the time, I couldn't see anything.  I could only see my feet, and they weren't moving in the right direction.  They were trudging slowly, just enough to be moving.  Only when I looked up, could I move forward, and go to the place I wanted to be.  One day at a time, one foot in front of the other.  Looking down I could only see 10% of the world at my feet.  Looking up, I go forward, and see around me.  I even look back from time to time to see where I was, but not for too long, or it will deter me from my forward movement. Keep your head up and keep moving.  Have a great day!
