I wanted to be able to drink without facing the consequences. After all, others can do it - why can't I??? Well, it's because I am an alcoholic. Today, I'm ok with that! I don't resent being different from those who can drink with impugnity, and I enjoy "those meetings" now. Those AA people are now my friends and family. I'm very grateful to a part of them, and I'm very grateful to be a part of you too! Today I have no shame in saying, "I'm Dane and I'm an alcoholic."

Hoping everyone has a good day today and thinking of those who are struggling.
