Learn to live

[MajestyJo]

Just the title alone is worth listening too. When we are using, we are not living. We are marking time and our focus is on our drug of choice. It becomes our God.

It is one thing to read the words, but take the words off the page and apply it to your life. It is one thing to know and another to live it.

I can give up on life, sit back and say, `God you do all things, you make it all better and make it go away.` That is not living.

Life is making the best of what you have. Don`t focus on what you don`t have. Give thanks for what you do have. Think about where you were at when you came into recovery.

If you want more, don`t think of your drug of choice, make your God your choice and choose to live your life.

I asked for help. I got Health Care coming in bandaging my feet, I have a physiotherapist coming in, a wound nurse coming tomorrow, a chiropractor that I see tomorrow (if it wasn`t for him, I wouldn`t be walking today. He also saved my sanity when I suffered from migraines), it is about doing the do things to help myself. I prayed and my God opened the doors. It was up to me to walk through them.
