New feelings


Since I called the police on the ex alcoholic bf, that was extremely abusive toward me, I feel I have changed. I remember whenI first met him, 2 years ago, I was needy and felt I needed a man. Today, after a lot of therapy work, and reading here, I feel so different. I feel Free at last. I am happy in my own little world. I do not feel the need to be in a relationship with a man, nor date. I am content with me and my living alone arrangements. I wake up every day to complete bliss, noone screaming or yelling at me and no more being so scared I am shaking and the medication for anxiety I am taking is not working because of my fear of him. Today, I feel I have been reborn. I feel complete and content!  Is this what sanity is? To me this is the most incrediable feeling in the world! Its like I have been given another chance to get my life right! It could be because I am now 47 years old and have grown up! I do not know. I keep thinking, is this real? This complete happiness within myself. I have been on my healing journey for 25 years now and I know I will continue right to the end. I love this program and all of you for sharing! It has saved my life! I went to a AA meeting last night-woman only and it was so good to hear how bad alcoholism can get. I heard a woman sharing about how her addiction has taken everthing, every single thing from her and she is now homeless.. and she was a young woman maybe 30 years old! So sad, It reminds me if I do not keep myself in recovery, I could be like her..all because of my addiction to the alcoholic! Any feedback would be great!

Great work Joker

Yes this is real.  The spiritual awakening is maintained by continuing to practice these principles in all our affairs.
