Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me....
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now, I see.

Thank you everyone. That means more than you can know. I have been working towards some kind of reconstruction in my life as I damaged it badly. Im trying. Thank you for the welcome backs!

Its a beautiful thing.

My sponsor has Amazing Grace as his ringtone.

I dont know many prayers YET... But the serenity prayer has been a lifesaver for me so far.

God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.

Ghostman, just take small steps and be kind to yourself.

I'm glad you're back.

I can only pray to God that I do. I have a lot to fix.

Actually I did sign up on Plenty of Fish lol After a week I got it out of my system. It was a stress reliever but then realized I was just making my life more complicated and I deleted my account.

I have to put all of my efforts into me instead of some random relationships when I'm still devastated about destroying my marriage with drinking.

Hang in there! You must remember from getting sober the first time that things will get better.
