We don't shoot our wounded Daphne. Yeah you might wear on us a little but it's nothing we haven't dealt with before
After all, we're alcoholics!
I got this reading the other day and I've been saving it for a post like this, see if it makes sense to you....
When temptation comes, as it does sometimes to all of us, I will say to myself.- "No, my whole life depends on not taking that drink and nothing in the world can make me do it." Besides, I have promised that Higher Power that I wouldn't do it. I know that God doesn't want me to drink and I won't break my promise to, God. I've given up my right to drink and it's not my decision any longer. Have I made the choice once and for all, so that there's no going back on it?
Now that's how I have to feel every day, that my whole life depends on
not taking that drink. It's not an option, it's not my ace-in-the-hole.
Glad you're back. Be gentle.
