Good share....

Hi Im Sharon and Im an
alcoholic.

By the grace of my HP and
people like you here in SR
I havent found it necessary
to pick up a drink of alcohol
since 8-11-90.

For that and you Im truely
grateful.


Even tho Ive remained sober
a few yrs.now....it wasnt
until last yr that I became
rigorsly honest in all my affairs.

All my life i had been unhappy.
Everything I tried to help me
get happy never seemed to
last.

Then, with continued prays
asking for guidance and strength
it finally happened.

The gift of complete honesty
was blessed upon me.

The most remarkable thing about
this was my HP who knows me
better than anyone removed
that character defect of mine
because i was ready to have
it removed.

It was that half measure that
availed me nothing until I became
completely honest in ALL my
affairs.

When that happened the door
to freedom opened for me.

The gift of FREEDOM ....freedom
from the bondage of not being
completely honesty.

Today I have "no secrets" and
an open book.

Thanks for letting me share.
