60 days today! I've had a few things happen this week that helped me see that there are good things happening in my early recovery. Things are getting interesting! Here are the things that have happened...
One: I met a fellow flight attendant from my company at a meeting and found out he lives nearby. It was really cool to find out I have someone else so close by that shares both recovery and the same career!
Second: A lady that I'm working with on the current trip I'm out on is also in recovery! We had a nice conversation about being sober on our DeadHead from Chicago to Buffalo.(Riding as a passenger,not working the flight) My sponsor pointed out this is God working in my life, that the fact that I was sitting next to another sober alcoholic at 33,000 ft was not a coincidence. I agree.
Third: Last night after we arrived in Ft. Myers and the passengers were deplaning. I had a real sense of love and compassion for everyone of those people as they left the aircraft. It was a moment of clarity for me. I realized that this is what it is all about, love of others even if I don't know them. I had a profound feeling of gratitude at that moment!
Fourth: Tonight as I was walking to a late night meeting here in Philadelphia, I stopped to take some pictures of the city hall and posted them on Facebook. When I arrived at the meeting, I checked my Facebook messages and I had a message from a friend who lives here. She told me she was in town and that there was a great meeting that we should meet at. It was the very place I was at! I called her and she met me there. It was a great meeting! I got to pick up my 60 day coin there. What a great way to end a day! I can't wait to come back!
So yes, things are looking up! Many blessings!
