I think being patient with my career search has finally come to fruition. I took lots of "stunt jobs" while I waited for my new career move. Guess it was Gods way of telling me I was exactly where I should be. Losing my job and then drinking up a storm helped me get sober. Here 2 years later, I have accepted a new job that I'm so excited about. I had to be ready to take on the responsibility. The point is I have had to be willing to accept that I have been exactly where I should be at that moment. And now I have acceptance again that this is the path set out for me, sure I had to do the legwork, but it's just a part of the plan. I pray each day that I be shown and recognize my path. It's good to know I'm not the boss any longer. Being the boss got me into my drinking dramas. Boy....am I glad not to be there any longer.

Aww Love ya Audrey! Indeed...I think you hit the nail on the head!
Stamding back and looking at the big picture does get us to see..."Oh! I get it now!"
It's another day that I just cannot find a thing wrong with sobriety! Imagine that!
Keep your head towards the sky.
Your Sister In Sobriety, Linda
