Hi Im Sharon and Im an Alcoholic.

By the Grace of my HP and you
people I havent had a drink of
alcohol since 8-11-90 and for
that im truely grateful.

" Once and alcoholic, always and
alcoholic. Commencing to drink
after a period of Sobriety, we are
in a short time as bad as ever.

If we have admitted we are
alcoholic, we must have no
reservations of any kind, nor
any lurking notion that some
day we will be immune to alcohol.

What sort of thinking dominates
an alcoholic who repeats time after
time desperate experiment of the
first drink? Parallel with sound
reasoning, there inevitably runs
some insanely trivel excuse for
taking the first drink.

There is little thought of what
the terrific consequences may be."



Today as i continue on my recovery
journey I still understand that if i ever
pick up a drinking of alcohol....or

................"POISON"..............

It will eventually either get me drunk,
go crazy or DIE.....

I still believe i have a purpose here
in AA and that is to continue to share
my own experiences, strengths and hopes
with those here in recovery.


I have NO... NADA ...excuses today
to pick a drink. To drink is to die...

Even at 40ish i feel young and im having
fun today if u can believe that... : )

Have u given up all excuses to drink or use today?
