The holiday weekend is upon us. For me everyday was a holiday when I drank. And when I didn't drink, days became hell! After years of drinking, I knew no other way to function. Drinking was equal to breathing and drinking was suffocating me to death! My last gasp came in the form of a prayer.
Now my holidays are filled with family, joy and peace. I eat, love, laugh and sleep. And when I wake up, I know where I have been and I ask God, to show me where to go. I love my life as it now is and wonder, how, I ever survived what once was.
