a daily medatation book
a daily medatation book is agreat tool in the begining of recovery as well always.
i have mentioned it before, na has a daily reading book, it is callede just for today, today medatation is on making ammends
by the way ammends is somthing that can waiy don't rush into
making amends, most new people think they need to do a fourth step and an 8 step make amends, .
step one is always the place to start, acceptance of the truth
i am an addict , i have used aginst my will, ,i have hurt people i love
aginst my will , meaning that is not what i wanted to do.
anyway back to a daily medatation book my fav is ( each day is a new beginning ) it always seemed that that little book was right on time, inspireing me just when i need it., when ever i thought i was done with staying clean ,i would read a medatation that would help me get back on track, it was like a miricle.
hazelden sells them as well as barnes and noble. they are in the misnamed self help area of the book stores.
if it is not practical it is not spirtual.!
humilty means being who we are and not who we think we are.!
it is not what we used that makes us an addict but why we used.!
unconditional love is allowing others to make mistakes
and still accept them and provide encouragement. !
a mature conscience is aware of it's motives
peace!!!!!!!!! and good day

I didn't go back to my post, but like Chezz said, I chose rehab. My boss, WAS, in fact, a recovering addict/alcoholic---had done exactly the same thing I did, and has re-entered the profession and been sober for over 20 yrs. now. So when I confessed, it was because he said he knew (in his gut) what I was going through and could get me some help. If he would have taken me to court, had I rejected rehab, I would have just been made to get in a 12-step program (1st offense) PLUS I would have had to pay restitution which would have been in the thousands of dollars. My point is, he was actually very understanding. I confessed because I had "felt out" others who worked there to see how much they knew, and two people had said they'd seen me steal pills (I got reckless near the end) and so I knew they could expose me and the writing was on the proverbial wall. I waffled for days, could I worm my way out--his word against mine w/ no real proof vs. the gig is up, face the consequences and get this monkey off your back. All of this ruminating going on in the height of withdrawls...It was SWELL. Chezz--what's your email again??? Peaz
Thomas you are a crack head, once again!!!! LOL You have to read my other post up top.
She didn't got to JAIL. She went to rehab. With empty pockets!
Peaz, to your 1st question, give it time or e-me.
Bmac and everyone - where in the heck was I in the 70's. Oh, maybe the result of a BIG percodan night on the town.
