E is for Each day is a new beginning. We get the opportunity to grow and change in recovery. What we did yesterday doesn't keep me clean and sober in today, it gives me hope for a better tomorrow. Each day gives me a newday to practice the principles in my life.  |

F is for Forgiveness. We can't forgive us, if we don't truly forgive ourselves. There are tend to be reservations and/or conditions that we tend to tag onto others we tend to try to detach from. Those invisible lines tend to draw us back into the past and we are not free and drag us back from the present into our old thoughts and action instead of living for today.  |

G is for God. This is a spiritual, not a religious program. It is alright to have your religious beliefs as long as you don't project them onto someone else. There are many religions, there are many ways to the path of spiritual living. Good Orderly Direction from a Group of Drunks and Drug Addicts, show me new way to live clean and sober. For me, it is called the Fellowship of the Spirit. The path to spiritual understanding can be found by working the 12 Steps.  |

I is for Integrity. Walk your talk. Do people look at you and see recovery? What is your intent? Mine is to carry the message of recovery. Sorry for not being here. If you have recovery, show it. We still have a few minutes left.  |

O is for Ouch. Pain can take us back out if we don't. acknowledge it. We can't stuff it or ignore it it will only grow. We need to bring it down to size so it is manageable. I was reminded today of how I felt when I came into recovery. I was sick and tired of being sick.

T is for Try. Trying to be the best you that you can be in today. Failure is not doing our best failure is in not trying. Each day I try to do my God's will. Sometimes I fall short but that is okay. All I am asked to do is try.
