It was the changes I saw in the new people who came into the Fellowship that helped me lose my fear, and change my negative attitude to a positive one. I could see the love in their eyes and I was impressed by how much their "One Day at a Time" sobriety meant to them. They had looked squarely at Step Two and came to believe that a power greater than themselves was restoring them to sanity. That gave me faith in the Fellowship, and hope that it could work for me too. I found that God was a loving God, not that punishing God I feared before coming to A.A. I also found that He had been with me during all those times I had been in trouble before I came to A.A. I know today that He was the one who led me to A.A. and that I am a miracle.

24 more hours for this minivan driver. inactive alcoholic.
I bought a minivan last night now I just need to put the breathtalyzer.
Thanks so much for these words, erfra.

Congratulations on your new mini-van!!!! Safe travels.

I'm here and planning a sober 24 hours which will include a long walk on the beach, despite the slushy weather.

Enjoy that beach walk, Anna.

Can't continue like this...Going to make apt with doctor to get myself checked out. 13 and a half months sober is great and all...But yeesh yesterday was scary .

Hope everyone else is having an OK day.

I admire your self-awareness, Finding. Good to hear that you are going to get checked-out.

Stay close.
