I stopped trying to understand why some people's bottoms are more severe than others.

My brother's bottom was passing out with a cigarette, resulting in third degree burns over 80% of his body.

I got a DUI many years before I even stopped drinking. It's only by the grace of God that I didn't have more or kill myself or somebody else in the process. God knows I could've.

The one common thing I've found with others on these forums whose bottoms include real legal consequences was that the situation would've been so much worse had they not gotten sober and dealt with it.

I always try to find the lesson in everything...some I've found, others I'm still learning about.

One thing's for sure...however hard you think the punishment might be, it'll be harder if the judge and others think that you're not doing anything to turn your life around.

Get pro-active about your sobriety and recovery. It'll go a long way in more ways than one.
