12/22/2002 Entry: "Coping With the Holidays?"
The Holidays mean a change in my routine. I DON'T DO CHANGE WELL!!! ARGH! These times mean a lot of nostalgia, as well. For me, some of those memories are uncomfortable, or down right painful.
So, i'm doing a bit of planning on how to cope witht he added stress in my life during the next few weeks. Below is a list of my choices. Care to share/comment on yours?
1. an extra meeting this week
2. call my sponsor at least twice each week.
3. CAUTION! there's using all a round - if i choose to go to them, make sure i'm able to leave those parties (always drive)
4. remember my commitment to NOT USE TODAY
5. write an entry about the last time i used, and remember the pain and chaos
6. pray daily
7. keep asking, "What do i need to do NOW for my recovery?"
8. keep close tabs on the HALT meter: don't get too Hungry, Angry, Lonely, or Tired.
9. keep journaling
10. give something to someone without them knowing it was me.
okies... your turn!
PEACE TO YOU!

Nowadays we all give too much thought to the material blessings or evils that science has brought with it, and too little to its power to liberate us from the confinements of ignorance and superstition. The greatest liberation of thought achieved by the scientific revolution was to have given human beings a sense of future in this world. by poker tournaments

It is pathetic to observe how lowly the motives are that religion, even the highest, attributes to the deity... To be given the best morsel, to be remembered, to be praised, to be obeyed blindly and punctiliously - these have been thought points of honor with the gods. by poker online

I myself am human and free only to the extent that I acknowledge the humanity and liberty of all my fellows... I am properly free when all the men and women about me are equally free. Far from being a limitation or a denial of my liberty, the liberty of another is its necessary condition and confirmation. by internet casino

i used to worry i would not be fun, or have fun, once i stopped drinking.
bottom line is, i found out what fun is and what fun is not. why ELSE is everyone drinking too much at these parties?! because they are no flippin' fun in the first place.
new year's eve is the single most OVERRATED holiday of the year with or without booze. if you know what fun is for you...stick to that.
ok, i am oversimplifying here, but you know what i mean.
i used to worry i would not have anything to take booze's place. now i wonder why i wasted so much space with it in the first place. WE are SO much BETTER now.

Thankfully, I usually get stronger every day. Except this is a vulnerable time for me because I visit my childhood home and see people from my past. You, Theo, think back to your last time high; but If I see someone high, that does it for me. I just don't want to play that anymore. Be well.
