Day 786 Clean & Sober

Good morning!  My name is Lauren, and I'm a grateful, recovering alcoholic/addict.  Forgiveness is a big step in recovery.  A lot of peope forgave me, God forgave me, but me forgiving myself was a big step.  there were a lot of things I could forgive myself for, but there were still some things I struggled with.  But until I spilled my guts, and did my 4th and 5th step, and got it all out there, and told my sponsor, it was hard.  Then I had to work on forgiving myself.  I had done a lot of bad things.  But I am supposed to forgive as God as forgiven us, and that means MYSELF too!  Once I brought everything to the surface, I realized I had to let those feeling of not being good enough go, and I could love myself again.  I was worth it, but only by the grace of God.  Without Him I am nothing.  He is the one who saved me.  So I had to stop beating myself up about the past.  It made me who I am today.  I didn't completely forget about it, but it doesn't eat me up inside today, like it used to.  That's all I have for today!  Have a great one! Don't forget to check out my Store.  I now have some of my photographs for sale as well! You can also see more of my work on my facebook page.  (You might have to scroll down a bit, but a do some usually every day or every other day.) Don't forget to sign up for the drawing too!
