Hi Guys,
Thanks for the posts. My point about the raffle ticket was that it was a giveaway from the restaurant-the guy made no wager-and thats the part that really bothers me.
So typical of me to nit pick things but thats part of me too.
I went out with my GF this afternoon. She got a call and an invite to the casino while i was there. It was funny when she told me, she called it "the place we used to go", lol! Now thats respect for me and my recovery. She sees the changes in me, even if no one else does, even when I don’t, or can’t.
It’s a strange moodiness that I have had the last few days. I so don’t want to go to work tomorrow.
I was listening to the "I believe in Love" song in my car on the way home tonight. When the lyric "love is out there waiting somewhere, all you have to do is go and find it", the tears were just rolling down my face. I had to find a napkin, as my neck and chest were getting soaked.
I do believe in love but it has always been elusive to me. All the simple things in life that people take for granted, just someone to hold them, someone to share a meal or a movie,someone to walk with who holds your hand, just simple little things. You are rich beyond your wildest dreams. These are things you will never find in a casino. I know this as fact. I looked.
peace
