DAY FORTY EIGHT ~ MEETING FORTY EIGHT
ACTION

The meeting today had a topic from Voices Of Recovery. It said:

"I am responsible for doing the action recommended by this program. The phrase is 'powerless over food' not powerless over doing the footwork"

There are days when I am rip roaring ready to go and want to give my program my all and others when I want to sit on my bum and isolate away from everyone and everything. I am so grateful to have this commitment of 90/90 because if I didn't, I could very possibly let days go by without taking any action what-so-ever in my program. I have other people relying on me now and expecting to hear from me every day.

I have all kinds of power and choices in whether or not to use my tools and do the footwork required to stay abstinent. I have days where I just don't want to contact my sponsor and days where I certainly don't want to go sit in a meeting and days where I don't even want to take the time to pray because I am too busy. Now, I realize I have a choice; I have the power to choose. I can choose to do the footwork or I can choose to slack off, end up back in my disease and eventually die. I don't choose to do that today or any day for at least the next 42 days. Thank God for you all being here.

Until tomorrow ~
I'm Kim
