" Whenever you make a mistake or get knocked down by life, don't look back at it too long.
Mistakes are life's way of teaching you.
Your capacity for occasional blunders is inseparable from your capacity to reach your goals.
No one wins them all, and your failures,
when they happen, are just part of your growth. Shake off your blunders.
How will you know your limits without an occasional failure? Never quit.
Your turn will come :O) "

" Welcome! We are so blessed to have online support. That is how I got on my path to recovery from alcohol and pot. I had to use meetings on land, too, eventually, when I was ready. That made an important difference to me. Accountability, hope, knowledge, referrals, understanding, help, are all here for you in places like this and AA. Good luck. We stay sober just for today, one day at a time. "
