Don't Blink

[kim715]

Today was the first day since going off the methodone that I actually had a pretty decsent day,now if I can sleep tonight that would make it a great day. Earlier today I asked how to get rid of the anxiety I was feeling in the pit of my stomach.One of you suggessted listen to music,so I turned on the digital cable,and went to the country music,and while I cooked and cleaned I cranked up the volume and it really helped. When I sat down to take a break there was a song by Kenny Chesney that came on. It was the first time I ever heard it,it's called "Don't Blink". Anyway the song touched me so much I started to cry.If you get a chance you should listen to it.there are two verses that really touched me.             " Best start puttin first things first "cause when your hour glass runs out of sand you can't flip it over and     start again.Take every breath God gave you for what it's worth.Don't Blink. So i've been tryin' to slow it down,i've been tryin' to take it in,in this here today gone tommorow world we're livin' in .Don't Blink." I was on a long blink there for a while.There were so many things I missed,or didn't appreciate them for what they were worth because my addiction always came first. It ran my life ,but not anymore.I'm taking over from here and I'm done missing out on what life has to offer.I'm not going to blink.Lots of Love to all of you.
