Ive been sober for 69 days . Im starting to see something I havent seen in years and its something the promises state about gaining interest in our fellows. Im really noticing how good of a feeling it is to care for someone else or just want to brighten someones day which has really gotten me thinking about just how sick of a place Ive been in for the last few years. Im seeing how good and warm of a feeling it is to care for someone else. Ive been a very ugly person for a long time and im seeing something I seem to have forgotten somewhere about how people need eachother and caring for oneanother, Ive been in a very ugly world for a long time...
Well done. Just from your little post here, you have packed so much of power into it. I am amazed at your change in attitude in only 69 days. You must be doing something right. Hold on to it. This is the core of recovery. Work on it and pass it on. God bless.
Yes, Im kinda seeing how you need to open your heart and care for people. Im kind of seeing how good it feels. Ive been very F-ed up to say the least for a long time now.
That's a fantastic outlook closer, it is by helping others out of their funk that we get relief from ours, and you just helped me out of mine. Thanks for posting this.

I can see it now. The world needs love -people need love. It was something I had when I was younger that was the energy that fueled me. Ive been in a very dark, solitary world for a long time and Ive forgotten it. Im seeing the difference between healthy and unhealthy, light and dark, positive and negative etc. Im seeing how caring for someone or even just people in general is the key to opening myself up and being happy again, being in control again, being able to carry on with my life after all this pain and suffering, I havent fully recovered yet but I think Im beginning to,or at least very close. Im seeing just how sick some people get and understanding how they get there. Im seeing the way back to the place I once knew that Ive been searching for and wanting to return to, its by loving people, love is what opens you up after youve been hurt and dropped out of the human race, hiding somewhere as some sick person in a dark lonely world...
