Just want to share an experience I had this past Monday, which fellow by my soberity date On Tuesday July 14th.
6 years ago to the date fell on Monday July 14th 2003, My day started out alright but had vibes I couldn't explain until I spoke to a family member today.
It was like I was reliving the day of my mother's accident and the events that took place that week, in other wards, I quite drinking just lost my mom and had until the friday to decide weather or not I was gonna let my children go into the CAS and or leave my now ex husband. WOW what an experience, that was a tough week, but somehow I managed to get through it and here I am 6 years later sober.
My aunt mentioned that it could time to close that chapter of my life and move on, it also could a sign of my mother telling me to let it go,,, it's also been 6 years since this legal end of it has yet to be resolve.
I'm in the process of trying one last thing for this to come to a close and pray that something will come out of this as a positive so my family can move on and my mother may finally REST IN PEACE!!!
I'm going to Toronto on Monday to visit Family, That could be interesting, there's still alot of unresolved issues there and I realized that I done my part to clean my step off with the 9th step, and well I did my best to clear the air. And now leave it in God's hands to let the rest do as it should on it's own.
Anyways I just thought I'd share in hopes to let others or newcomers know that even 6 years in to the program, we all somehow have obstacles to over come and if you hang in there things will work out... 1 day at a time.
hey Tina. You reminded me of how important it is for us to be aware of our "personal anniversaries." They don't come already marked on our calender. But if we have thoroughly worked the steps and truly allowed people into our lives again, they will pick up on our non-verbal cues and point out to us what the problem could possibly be. THAT, my friend, is how it works!!!
