Dear diary
I am very appreciative of this moment in recovery.
I realized that I was doing the same total abstinence thing but now I was able to experience more. I can see the small details and difference recovery makes in my life, this was an awakening experience for me.
I didn’t notice this the last time, it didn’t happen last year when it was a good period in my recovery but I can see them now.
Gambling has rob me of a life that I could have. I was so focus on gambling that I do not have the time and attention for others.
I missed all the little things in life that was important and meaningful to others. Gambling has rob my love ones of the love that they deserve and a life that I could have.
If this awareness was a growth and a progress for me, it sure took a long time to arrive but it was worth the wait.
Everything has a timing and happens for a reason.
Recovery has been a journey of discovery for me, discovering a life that I never had and can have.
