So much in common

I have so much in common with many of you. The only thing that separates you and me is one drink. Actually, the first drink to be more exact.
Give up that first drink and the possibilities become endless

Paralyzed

Alcohol was a ball & chain that I learned to live with and eventually adore. Until one day when I could move no more.

Bully

Alcohol bullied me when I was young. When I began to grow older alcohol became my master. I knew better than to let alcohol get the best of me. But I am an alcoholic and knowing better is no match for alcohol.
God and the wonderful people he placed in my path turned out to be all I would ever need to conquer my demons.

17 years!

17 years sober and giving all the glory to God!

Existence

"Good morning to a world in which I no longer belong".
This is what I said the day I decided to let alcohol take away my existence.
For some of us, alcohol takes away our existence when we have our very first drink.

Prayer

I experience peace and joy in direct proportion to the amount I pray and serve others.

Problem

I had a problem and I drank to make it go away. It went away for awhile, and when it came back it brought about 30 more problems along.
