part of my story

[lionsstripe]

you will never hear me say A.A. saved my life, the life i had was not worth saving, what A.A. has done was give me a life worth saving, i was on a dead end hwy and running out of black top real fast, im 45 years old, i went to reform achool for the first time when i was 11 was only home two weeks befor i was in frontof the judge on my way back, i have traveled this planet of our i started school in japan, every time it seemed i got settled in at a new school we were packing up and moving, i had some kind of medical problem with my kidneys when i was age 7 and my parents let me drink two beers a day, now that was way cool, but it didnt take long befor them two beers turned in to 3 , 4 , 5, i smoked my first joint in the fifth grade a friend got it from his brother, oh hell that was great, and i knew i wanted more, so there started my long life of crime, i needed money to pay for the pot, not to mention the boot leger, i was sent to a drug and alcohol out patiant treetment for the first time at the age of 13, now that place was a joke, i had better things to do,,, so i left home at an early age and i just traveled across the U.S. back and forth with no goals execpt to stay out of jails but, it just seems that i ended up in jail in every town that i ever passed through, i got married for the first time when i was 20 wow she was a beauty, she was a pro model wow i had it made, well we were married about a year and i went to a party and left her at home, well thats when my world as i knew it was over, i woke up several days later married to another woman , yes i already had a wife at home, to this day i still dont remember even meeting this woman lilltle own getting married to her, so here i am with 2 wives now i was screwed, well i ended up divorcing my first wife real quick and letting here keep every thing i figured our marrage was over any way so i may as well give this new wife a chance, lmao, boy i was so full of logic lmao, well needless to say that marrage didnt last im on my 7th wife, she is also in the program of A.A. she is fully aware of my past we have no secrets, this october 31st will be our two year wedding aniversary, I have been to prison 3 times so as you should be able to see i have run out of chances this is it for me, yeah i got another drunk in me but i honestly dont think i got another sobering up in me, that is why i take this program so damn serious, this is LIFE OR DEATH TO ME, well i guess this is enough bable today but maybe sharing this small part of my life it might give some others a little hope and to let folks also know where im comming from

When a story is filled with such a message as you posted... No more needs be said. Not interested?... Look at all the thank you's under the post.
I would say that we all just had nothing more we could add to how you put things out there for the whole world to learn from.
A very powerful share in my opinion.

Ditto what best said. I know that when I first started posting I would get upset if people didn't post right away. It's that whole alkie instant gratification thing that goes on with me, but I know that sooner or later someone will be along. And it is true, that is a real inspiration and it takes alot of courage to post your story. I know I haven't really gotten that courage yet. So please, keep on posting and know that we are here listening even if we don't always reply right away.
