Sarah,
Thanks for the reminder to come to this site. If, I don't do anything more then go to bed clean and sober tonight, I've had a great day. I have to keep around the newcommers to hear how bad it still is out there to lead me away from any temptation!!!!

We treasure the Serenity Prayer because it brings a new light to us that can dissipate our oldtime and nearly fatal habito f fooling ourselve.
In the radiance of this prayer we see that deafeat, rightly accepted, need be no disaster. We now know that we do not have to run away, nor ought w again try to overcome adversity by still another bulldozing power drive that can only push up obstacles before us faster than they can be taken down
