I wish everyone who put down the drink their
last time would never pick up again as it hurts
me so to hear or read of so many who decide
to go back out to test the waters to see if its
safe to drink again.
For me and many who have learned how to reman
sober living our daily lives incorporating lots of tools ,
resources and knowledge of addiction and recovery in
our daily affairs have not gone back out to test the
alcohol waters because we hear and read from many
who have.
For each one going out and hoping they return, can
testify to us that alcohol is still alive and well, never
slowing down and taking folks out more and more
each time. Relentless.
In hearing or reading this, stops me right in my thoughts
and actions and keeps me ground and even more sure of
myself and where I am in my own recovery life. In my own
responsibility to stay sober no matter what.
Ive been on that roller coaster ride, that merry go round
of insanity yrs ago vowing never to get on it again, but then
to only fail until I entered recovery and picked up the tools
available to me to help me avoid the pitfalls of alcohol addiction.
No one ever has to return to the drink once they
get into recovery and build themselves a strong
solid foundation to live upon for yrs to come putting
the plug in the jug once a for all.
