I hope you'll get there too. It's not a weakness.
amen!!
to win the war i had to surrender. theres nothing wrong with saying,"i dont know what to do or how to do it" and reaching out for help.

i had to turn to others for help. all i had to go on was my thinkin and my thinkin got me drunk.
my thinkin wasnt gonna help me get sober. i had to have the thinkin of others- others that had been on my shoes- to help me get out from under.
