You were on my mind a lot lately, Liz
My thoughts ran like this…Success in recovery is not just about having barriers and resisting urges it is about saying no to ourselves.
When the thought arises we can either resist or succumb.
Once we put that thought into action, there is no turning back.
So the bottom line (in my thoughts) is that you are not a strong or weak person. You are an unselfish person, Liz.
That trait affects every aspect of our lives.
Self gratification can be overcome through practice.
Our vices can be become our virtues .
You are a clear example of that.
You have my admiration.
God bless!
