Good morning everybody. We are here for a reason. Our Higher Power loves us and the sooner we align our will with his, the sooner we attain peace with ourselves and others. I can't we can. #instagood #ocean #boardwalk #bay #recovery #instalike #like4like #higherpowered #newbedfordma #selfie #nofilter

4 years ago a group of people who loved me more than I could love myself all came together to pull me up from what I can only discribe now as the deepest darkest Hell. I had lost a battle in family court & my son was moving to the East Coast, I attempted suicide again & I aggressively began seeking death through lethal amounts of prescription drugs & substances. Today I honor those who had the courage to do something I couldn't & for those who showed me there was still #Hope for a better way to live. Two amazing men walked me through the doors of recovery & in just four short years we unfortunately lost them both suddenly. Such a tremendous loss for recovery & their beautiful families- they will never leave my heart. My Father who just recently passed would come visit me in the rehabilitation center where we sat peacefully on a bench under the trees of the facility & spoke about life without judgements. I will forever cherish those conversations & his unwavering unconditional love. Regardless of how life shifts us & within us I hold tight the highest honor to those who I am not close with today who helped me in my most desperate time. Today as always you are (all) in my daily prayers- May you be happy, healthy, thriving & have the wisdom to avoid suffering when capable. Life today on life's terms with discernment & awareness around selfless service, healthy boundaries, compassion & the purpose of a higher powers will [4 years- It Works] #perseverance #courage #honesty #surrender #love #commitment #openmindedness #selfcare #humility #wisdom #higherpowered #spiritualprinciples #THANKYOU #JLT

Majority of the things I've learned in sobriety are not about using or about substance abuse, but about how to be a better person, be happier and live a better life. Something I'm continually reminded of by people who know more and have more experience than me is that this is not an easy task, but it is a very simple one. "Doing the next right thing" is how I should try and determine how my time is spent each day. I have to check myself and my motives constantly to make sure I'm not being selfish, self centered, and feeding my out of control ego. I am so undeserving of the amount of love, loyalty and overwhelming support I have in my life on a daily basis. I have to try to make sure that everything I do is bettering myself or helping others so that all the love and friendship I have isn't given to me in vain. Feeling really fucking lucky today. #GiveItAway #TheTurnUpLife #soberlife #thesoberturnup #cleareyesclearheadclearheart #prayfortheweak #lovethyself #higherpowered #serenitynow #12stepshuffle #sobriety #aa #na #giftsofsobriety #dreambelieveturnup
