My Alcoholic Mind.

Today I woke up and I think my Alcoholic Mind was trying to get me to buy into smoking crack and drinking cheap vodka all day. I used to run and gun on the holidays. I want to have a good holidays for my family and for myself. I called my sponsor and we met. I was like I WANT TO SMOKE CRACK LOL he told me that I should do something for other people and stay sober just for today. I was like aight dude I will try it. So I am hoping everyone has a jolly christmas don't smoke crack LOL it ain't worth it.

Duly noted!!

Xmas is a time of year when our minds can go into overdrive, what might be easier on a Tuesday night in June, might sound like a great idea on Xmas Eve, but it's all fairytale and myth.

Keep pushing through, and have that great holidays with your family!!

Keep on, Keeping on man! You have a choice today. Keep texting people and reaching out. Everything is going to be okay. Just don't use crack or drink today.

One day at a time is all it takes. Then the days start adding up. Stay sober my friend.
