| Thank your Rufus, for the reminder of what sobriety and the 12 Steps have given me. When I arrived at AA's door I had no clue who I was and figured that there was no point in knowing that person anyway as I would probably not measure up anyway. Today, I know who I am, I can define myself by more than just what career path I have chosen or not chosen, by whether I am in a relationship or not, etc.... Today, my skin is a pretty good place to be most days. I truly appreciate your reminder that sobriety gave me the life that my addiction had swallowed.
