Making Progress

And how am I progressing toward limiting the use of alcohol in my life and bringing together the parts of me that have fallen behind? I'm getting there. The death of my father brought the drinking back into my life and for a couple of weeks it was starting to become as serious as it was before. Then, thank goodness, I have been able to start limiting the amount. I do feel better as a result. The death of my father has also given me a new perspective on what's important. Am now exercising every evening, even if it's just a 20 minute walk after dinner. Am back to reading books on religious/spiritual topics. Am talking to a psychologist about bringing together my physical, mental, and spiritual realms. As a result, I am beginning to feel the extremes coming together. The past person who was driving for that ever more prestigious position at work is coming closer to the person who loves family, friends, the arts, and spirituality. This is really starting to feel good! I'm beginning to hope, even think, that I can be whole again.
