For the first time since entering the OA rooms nearly 2 years ago, I have 90 days of abstinence. I feel so blessed and grateful for the abstinence. Likewise, I am grateful for the foundation of the steps, the support of the fellowship, and the continual presence of HP which all made this possible.
One day at a time, I pray to focus on the principles, work the steps to the best of my ability and give my defects and control over food to HP.
I am also feeling so blessed and humbled as I am now a sponsor for the first time. It feels daunting and scary, but I have faith in HP and my willingness to ask for help from my own sponsor and HP when I don’t know to approach a situation with my sponsee.
I reach out for my recovery, so I may pass it on to her. I pray for serenity to accept I work my program, not hers. I pray for the courage to tell the hard truths, and the wisdom to know when simply let a situation be.
On a side note, I am having a bad reaction to a medication for my bipolar II. Of course, it is happening on a weekend, but I will leave a message for my doctor and reach out for guidance on how to handle the situation.
With love and light, I pray to HP to make the next right choice.
