🛑 when i stop 🚽
posted: Sat, Apr 17, 2021 08:46:52 AM
talking and listen to what is going on around me, i GET the opportunity to seek what i actually need top find and learn at least one more thing. living in a world between being a socially retarded and being seen as someone who is confident and self-assured. is a weird spot for this addict. sharing my Dad's journey to his death with my friends and family on Facebook, has opened up a new audience for these little bits of mind-dumpery and i have yet to reconcile how i feel about that as well. the simple fact of the matter is, that i live in a world where i am exposed to my peers in recovery and have dome my best to keep that on the down-low to casual acquaintances and family members. one might think after two decades or so of doing this gig, i would have lost the FEAR of wowing who i am and the process that brought me to this place in my life.
