Acceptance of Me

Today is day 25 of not drinking. Day 5 of being home alone unsupervised. LOL  I am enjoying this alone time. 

I feared that I was going to fall into old habits of brooding and needy.

However I am most pleased to say that this not the case. I am taking advantage of it all. 

Huh……another personal growth step. Look Ma no hands! 

Tender kisses

butterfly soft

fingers entwined

watching the night lights

head upon shoulder

time is on our side

as we wait

for life to begin.

Time unfolds

roads

twist

turn

never straight

not always easy

begrudged

not a once

for this is life.

Happiness

fleeting

forever

depends upon whom

you rely…..

self

or

others?

Truths

accepted

acknowledged

no atonement

this is me

who I be.

My…..self.

My…..purpose.

My…..reality.

Wrapped

blanket of peace

of joy

life no longer scares

embraced

the road traveled

less lonely

less frightening

all

for learning to accept myself.
