Day 347

Good morning!  My name is Lauren and I'm a grateful, recovering alcoholic/addict.  I had previously walked through life feeling as if I had no purpose.  Well, I guess I was here to be a wife and mother, but that was about it.  I really didn't feel like I was here to do anything.  Once I got sober, I had a whole new outlook.  I was here for a reason.  I had a purpose.  Maybe it was to go though part of my life as an alcoholic/addict, to be able to help others recovering as well.  I feel that what I have done, helps me communicate better to those who want the same thing I have, the same thing I want, sobriety.  My passion now is life: loving it and living it.  Me loving what I have and understanding how truly blessed I am,  is an amazing thing.  God didn't give me a second chance, it was all part of His plan.  If I wasn't an alcoholic, I wouldn't be able to help other alcoholics.  I wouldn't be able to appreciate what I do have. Who knows what I would be doing.  But not doing what I love: helping people, caring for people, sharing with people, loving people.  Do what you love and you will love what you do.  I am so happy now, so full of joy.  That is an amazing thing.  That's all for today!  Have a great one!
