So busy making a living I forgot to live…

Too many of us get sober and try to make up for lost time.  We work long, hard hours on a job or two or even three trying to get our financial house in order or trying too restart a career laid waste by alcohol.

We feel that we can’t fail if we put our nose to the grindstone and don’t look up but way too often the really important things in life like those important relationships with our significant others, our children, our friends,  even ourselves get lost in the dust.

Work can be as mind numbing as another addiction.

If your work is simply a job, look for something else.   Look for a “calling” where you can add true value to your community.

Anything less is a waste of your hard won sobriety.
