    • Wouldn’t the world just be such a better place if we could take a moment to help a neighbour, give thanks to those people that we appreciate in our lives that help us, random acts of kindness make this world such a better place. Thanks for the reminder Jeff, I’m going to drop some homemade cookies off at my mechanics “ for the boys “ on my way to work !

    Hello Lee hope you are doing well today I find helpful is keeping a journal just write how many days clean and the date and write how you are feeling that day it gives you time to reflect on your goal and keeps you in the mindset of recovery hope it will help you stay clean and give your higher power a chance to work on you.
