Day 500 Clean & Sober

Good morning!  My name is Lauren and I'm a grateful, recovering alcoholic/addict.  Today I have been sober 500 days.  Wow!!!  One thing I have learned and am continuing to learn is about when and when not to talk, when to listen.  That is a weakness of mine.  I am a talker, I admit that.  And sometimes that is a good thing.  Somtimes I can help people with my words, but sometimes I need to shut up and listen.  Sometimes I learn more from listening than I do from talking.  "We have two ears and one mouth, so we can listen twice as much as we speak." -epictetus.  I need to learn WHEN to do each.  That is the struggle.  Also James 1:19 says, "Know this, my beloved brothers: let every person be quick to hear, slow to speak , slow to anger."  It is all a learning process, a daily lesson and I am working on.  So practice this today too. Quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger.  That's all I have for today! Have a great one! Feel free to comment too.  I appreciate feedback.  :)
