Dan,
Thanks for this thread. Im new enough to keep going back and forth as to
"whether I believe". Sometimes I do,sometimes what I see coming in the future seems so overwhelming I think maybe I would prefer insanity. Only
to remember what if felt like day after day of living in it.
It brought me back to what my friend sent me a while back

"Bob. Keep in mind that sobriety is not the same as Sanity! One must
endeavor to come to "one's mind" even before you can tackle the
abstinence/sobriety issue. That's the heart of the 12 steps...to ask God to
restore our sanity (not make us sober)! Keep the faith and keep on
trucking, my man. I have great faith in you!"


That inspires me every day to believe in trying to achieve "sanity" at all
cost. Today I believe. I believe God can restore my sanity,it's a matter of
me choosing to believe that he can and will.
Thanks Dan
