		<description><![CDATA[My body has been a challenge from the moment I got sober.  Things bother me that I would never have noticed before.  And I don&#8217;t know if it is that I&#8217;ve totally damaged myself from my years of crystal meth use or if I&#8217;m just some kind of unluckily predisposed to illness kind of being.

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s easy to forget how things were three years ago.  It&#8217;s easy to forget how things were as I was first getting sober.  I&#8217;m lucky that I have a pretty raw written record of the experience.  It helps sometimes to go back and look at it, especially when it feels like things are changing.  And [...]]]></description>

For us, material well-being always followed spiritual progress; it never preceded.&#8221;  -Alcoholics Anonymous I&#8217;m still doing my usual routine, staying close to sober friends, attending meetings, writing inventory when it is indicated, seeing my sponsor regularly; [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I never would have thought I&#8217;d have an opportunity like this again.  The end of my drug use, and even for the most part the first 3 years I&#8217;ve been sober, have been pretty uninteresting and I have actually become pretty resistant to change.  Variation kind of freaks me out.  I feel so secure in [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I was thinking about an old post last night, Nothing You Can Find That Cannot Be Found, and about how lucky I was, that early in recovery, to have been protected from the worst of my temptations.  A little space for a little while can be a good thing while you&#8217;re getting your sober legs.  [...]]]></description>
