"Remind me this day, as I choose not to numb my senses

1. No substance will take away or change my circumstance
2. If I were to feel better from a substance it would be temporary
3. I am creating lasting change in my life by facing it as a SOBER individual
4. I walk faster towards my goals when I am not walking through "Sludge"
5. The friends I left behind on my journey, have started their own journey to their own destination---I have not abandoned them
6. I am not alone, I have support, both physically here, emotionally here, and spiritually here.
7. I feel better when I fill my body with goodness, just like I feel better when I fill my heart and mind with goodness."
8. Nothing I put in my body will take away what I feel in my mind.
