info_outlineTonight, the topic is
Appreciation, Value, and Self Worth
To get the show started I have a clip and a survey on tonight’s topic.
First the clip
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ba0ZUgtaMd8
I asked our listeners to tell us what they appreciate most in recovery, and here are the results.
Survey
https://www.surveymonkey.com/analyze/ofTuOFSPvwbJWECaT0gmFLu_2FoTEUsSSQbOT0pOW7oyY_3D
When I was in my disease almost everything was disposable, including my relationship with my sons and wife. I couldn’t stop using, my disease was demanding all my attention. I could not recognize nor appreciate the value in relationships. It was impossible to value simple things like a sunrise. At the end, holding a job or having money in our bank account could not be appreciated, my disease was everything.
