good to hear from you karate wanted to thank you for the book recomendation battle field of the mind by joyce meyer i'm almost done reading it. Now If i can just remember to apply some of what she says *sigh*.

Good job on not drinking through such a difficult time. I think i'd be drinking i know that sounds terrible but i often think if i where to divorce or loose my wife i'd be in a ditch with a bottle. Stories like yours insprie me to htink that it doesnt have to be that way.

Hey Karate - you should be proud of yourself. You are going through such a traumatic experience and maintaining sobriety - right on. Been missing your posts lately.

great to see you keeping going, Karate.
one question, though:
Without the soon to be X-wife , no need to drink .....
you blaming your soon-to-be-X for the former perceived "need" to drink?

You can get her on audio book, to listen in the car or housework, helps cement those ideas. Sometimes the words come back easier when we hear them.

Hi Karate

I was wondering how you are. Sorry for the divorce, happy you are sober.

hey Karate, haven't heard from you in a while.

Everything going okay?

Well done. Pour a drink in top of any problem and it magnifies it... divorce, bereavement or whatever difficult life situations throws at us. Both still the temptation is there. Congrats.

I think if I were to see someone face to face, talk to them, pour your heart out to them, as if your life depended upon it, that human touch, that body language, language tones, the eye contact is soooo powerful. I believe in so many ways that anonymous factor is not that great, like driving a car, you do not see the driver, its just a faceless object. Thats why you hear and read about so many road rage incidents, if the driver saw the babies face and the mothers face driving that car, attitudes would change. Kind of like the interent, but I must congratulate you on atleast trying something, anything. But if it doesnt work, it doesnt work, then what?
