So far away

After nearly 16 years without a drop of alcohol I am so far removed from what my life used to be.  My days of drunkenness, homelessness and hopelessness are a distant memory.  There was a time when I could not go 5 days without a drink!  And even though anger, fear and anxiety are still a part of my life, I am able to cope and overcome because alcohol is no longer in charge.

I take charge by putting God in charge.  Pure and simple.

Give recovery an honest attempt and soon you will forget what drunkenness is all about.
