Grateful to be a 'recovering' alcoholic.

Yeah, thats the way of it, isn't it?. A heart and mind seeking acceptance of our alcoholism always discovers gratitude and courage in abundance to move on past all those so-called "good times" of troubled yesterdays.

Gratitude is an ongoing emotionally satisfying experience that cleanses away shame and arrogance for this alcoholic. And I'm not alone in that either. heh heh
