You wil see that, although not painless, it's a good thing.

Fear is just your ego protecting your pride. Pride is the root of most of my own struggles, pain, etc...

I learned through this..and my program.. the pain will never leave until you yourself choose to stop suffering then nearly instantly the pain subsides

That's my err AA thought for today ? Or proverb or heck just something to get peoples opinions on..its nice to not have to answer ROM questions about android in my forums alerts souly wish i would have found this sooner, but clearly that's my will and well..my will..haha yeah I'm not about to do a 5th step

my will..only got me drunk lol glad it doesnt today. Just for today that is.

More than you'd think. People ususally start to poke around when something about their drinking bothers them, even when they can't really put words to it.

Whatever the reason...welcome to SR.

I came to help its kinda like praying lol what good is what I have if I dont give it away..old thinking I'd only show up on a bad day..

With praying turning to my HP only when life sucked never got me answers..its on the truly great days that I thank him..usually then he answers a problem I needed help with that I turned over to em LGLG so grateful for that.
