this_sort_of_sums_it_all_up
Daily reading from “Twenty Four Hours a Day” - November 16
This sort of sums it all up for me – great reading!
I have gotten rid of most of my inner conflicts. I was always at war with myself. I was doing things that I did not want to do. I was waking up in strange places and wondering how I got there.
I was full of recklessness and when I was drunk and full of remorse when I was sober.
My life didn’t make sense. It was full of broken resolves and frustrated hopes and plans. I was getting nowhere fast. No wonder my nerves were all shot.
I was bumping up against a blank wall and I was dizzy from it. AA taught me how to get organized and to stop fighting against myself.
I am the alcoholic described above. I was in my own way for so long.
AA is my solution (and of course SR too) and I’m becoming a very grateful recovering alcoholic.

My life was definitely one of broken resolves and promises to myself and others (including work obligations, and it's a wonder I didn't ever get fired). I am grateful I found my way back to AA after my relapse--some are not so fortunate. Thank you for the reminder; I don't want to ever go back there again!!!
