I realize a number of followers of this blog are outside the United States. I am incredibly grateful to have you with us and I apologize for some of this blog. I hope you are able to relate given your enjoyment of soccer and your related sports.
Today is opening day of the baseball season here in St. Louis. Our team's name is the Cardinals and the fans here are incredibly devoted-almost to hero worship but it is all in the name of fun.
Our apartment is across the street from the stadium and we have a wonderful view of all the pregame activities in the parking lot below us. It all started about 6 a.m. At this time (about 10:30a.m.) there are hundreds of people at the many booths, playing games, listening to loud music, getting autographs, eating and drinking. They are so excited about the game. My husband can't wait to go over and get hot dogs and bratwurst. The excitement and fun is palpable.
In recovery we need to have fun as part of our plan. We need to have excitement. Recovery is not just about "giving up " something. It is about finding a purpose, meaning and fun. It is about relationships.
What is fun for you today? What do you really look forward to? How can you tap into that?
Blessings-Penny
