the only way i found out i was wrong was from pain : )
as i lived my old life but i just didnt drink, i went looking for a woman as that was missing from my life if i had one i am sure being sober would be more fun : )
how wrong was i ? it was just a short term fix like so many things i chased after were short term feel good fixes
when i got these things i still wasnt happy and soon lost them again or they became unimportant to me
i would feel the pain and then look at what i have done
thats why i beleive its a life times work to grow in the fellowship
pain will teach me if i am wrong or not
letting someone help me was huge for me as i would sort it on my own and i wouldnt want to trouble anyone
what that ment was i would sit at home and suffer in pain or feel lonely and isolated rather than call someone up like a sponsor
took me years to even do that and yet its one of the first things i was told to do : )
good post
