Hi! I just wanted to pop in and say how proud I am of all of you! So many good things happening!

Warren, the addictive voice is very sly. It whispers, it yells, it pleads but most of all, it lies. A good friend of mine just "celebrated" his 30 days sober by getting ripped. Convinced a set amount of time passed without a drink had "cured" him. Today, he is filled with remorse, anger and self-pity. I don't know where he will go from here but it once again re-enforced my belief that the addictive voice is always lurking, wanting and waiting for a good enough lie to seduce us again into that sad state of active drinking/using.

Good for you for recognizing it and calling it out for the liar it is!

I'm so impressed and happy for all in this most special class!

Love,

Lenina
