Tears Of Joy
Sometimes I sit in bed at night after I have prayed and I just think back to what my life was once like.
I think to the days when my life had no purpose, no direction. It was all about seeking comfort from the next drink, the next drug. I lived in quiet desperation.
I didn't really care about anyone very much as I hardly cared about myself.
Life didn't make sense. I just wanted it to be over with. The days were the same. acquiring my alcohol, acquiring my drugs and drinking and using to oblivion.
Sometimes I have tears of joy when I think that I actually lived through it all and I am here to talk about it. I have a hard time believing that was the same person when I look back.
Today I have such peace every single day. I am so at ease. I can be alone and doing nothing and feel joy.
No longer restless irritable and discontent. No longer angry at the world.
God has removed the obsession to drink and drug from me, but it didn't happen until I fully surrendered. Until I finally said ok God my way doesn't work anymore. You take the wheel.
It's the day when I got honest.
When I did that the miracle began to happen.
Thank you God!

Check please! I mean checking in for another 24. 6:50 in the very hot smokey Valley of The Sun. Karma going out to the Fire Fighters and their families/loved ones who fought so bravely just east of here. We can smell the smoke here in the big city and think of you.

Promises (From our addiction/alcoholism)
You promised to make me happy, to take all the hurt away.
You promised me a lot of things just to make me stay.
You promised that you would be my friend,to help heal the pain.
You promised that you would keep me safe my shelter from the rain.
You promised you would be there every night and every day.
You also promised other things that you forgot to say.
You promised me pain, discomfort and tears.
You promised me a past that will haunt me for years.
You promised to keep me prisoner to never set me free.
You promised me a funeral,
You took a friend from me.
You promised me loneliness.
You promised me strife.
But one promise I had to break was your promise to take my life.
Though you’re not human, you have ten times the strength of man.
You bring destruction to anyone that holds you in their hand.
I’m glad that I am rid of you though you were hard to beat
And now I can stand tall and proud on my own two feet.
It's sad to think of the others that will live with your misery.
But there is one promise I make to you.Those others wont be ME!
Cuz I'm Free!
