Day 435

Good afternoon!  My name is Lauren and I'm a grateful, recovering alcoholic/addict.  There are so many new people I have met in recovery.  I love having a story for how we have met...and remembering it.  I hate seeing someone out in public and knowing they look familiar, and having no idea how I know them.  Knowing it was from a party, but not knowing what happened.  I could have just seen them there,  talked to them, made out with them, or who knows what.  It's actually pretty pathetic when you really think about it.  Now, I'm not saying I don't know who anyone is, and I made out with every guy at every party, but you know what I mean.  But now I can remember how I meet people, and who they are.  I can have a real story of how I meet someone.  We meet people for either a blessing or a lesson.  It's either one or the other.  Sometimes in the beginning we think it is a blessing and ends up being a lesson.  I guess it's a matter of perception.  Well, that's all I have got today.  Have a great one!
