Today I am grateful for the renewed connection that I have established with my son since I have been in recovery. Although I have to focus on both work and school, I have so much more time to devote to my son now. Even when I am completing school and work tasks, I still have the attention available to focus on my son's wants and needs rather than being consumed with my own obsessions and fantasies regarding whatever man I happen to have in my sights. I never realized how truly blessed I would be by the gifts of recovery. Honestly when I started this journey I thought I would be miserable and lonely, anticipating when I could start dating again. It took me many painful months to get to this point but I am extremely thankful that I did. I love my son so very much and I value every moment that I get to spend with him.
