Sobriety is soundness of mind.
I have to work on my soundness of mind daily. That means my emotional sobriety. I haven't had a drink in 24 years. That means I am sober. Do you have emotional hangovers from the day before? Do you lay your emotions to rest when you go to bed at night or do you pick them up when you get up in the morning? What do you do with your emotions? Do you acknowledge them? Do you ignore them? Perhaps you pick up a cigarette or decide you are hungry? Are you feeling comfortable being with yourself or are you feeling a little antsy? Do you need to pick up a book or turn the TV on? Do the normal programs no longer satisfy your mind and your normal routine not fill up your mind. Is something leaking into your mind that you don't want there that you are wanting to avoid? Just maybe you should look at it, perhaps it is a sign. Maybe your God is giving you a little nudge. I thought these sites were closed (The Five As and Soundness of Mind). I have been telling everyone they were. The format is changed, and I am not sure if I can respond to anythings posted here, but I felt led here tonight, so there must have been a very good reason.
