addicted to the idea of addiction...

somewhere along the way, we may get sidetracked and become addicted to the idea of being sick...instead of actively participating in our own recovery...which requires making healthier decisions...and choosing recovery...

we can get stuck, no matter how much time we have clean...back into ego/self...wanting what we want right now...

it is very important to understand that the problem is not alcohol and drugs...

the problem centers in our minds...

the problem is our minds...

letting go of all old ideas...ego/self...and acceptance of what is...

is a process that has been proven to be successful when one willingly takes these 12 steps...

the only thing between me and you and me and God...is ego...

get out of God's way...turn ego over...surrender...NOW...

start making healthier decisions...

memories of drug court...

i can remember a time early on in my recovery, that the judge point blank told me to mind my own business...at the time i was very upset by this, since i believed i was right in my assertations...i was living in a halfway house, where it seemed everyone but me was using...

when i am looking at your shit...i aint looking at mine...

and this lesson has come back to me many times since...and am sure that it will continue to do so...

it is none of my business what you do or say...and as long as i keep my own side of the street clean...then i wont be trudging in anyone elses shit!

thanx drug court...
