Good afternoon! My name is Lauren, and I'm a grateful, recovering alcoholic/addict. There have been some bad days that I think will never end. Or the bad stuff just won't stop happening. But when I really stop to think about it. It's really not that bad. It could be SO much worse. And when I REALLY stop and think about it (And I know I have said this before.) My worst day sober is still better than my best day drunk or using. I just need to be patient, and that is a hard thing for an addict. We want everything NOW! (Yesterday is actually better, but today will do.) Things will get better, and maybe not today, mayber not tomorrow, but they will get better. Some people very close to me are going through the hardest thing they have ever had to go through, and it's been going on for weeks. And right now all we can do is pray. Stay positive, be there for them, love them, and pray. It is all in God's hands, and was all in God's plan. It is so hard for us to understand things sometimes, but just giving it back to Him is all we can do. That's all i ahve for today. Have a great one!

Well said!! I have learned that when we are Postive its hard to have a good day. Attitude is everything and its hard always being Postive in a world of negativity.
