I've completely surrendered!

I've been attending AA everyday since last Wednesday. My sponsor is awesome and we just started going through the steps today. My life has already improved as I have completely surrendered. No more hating to be in a meeting or feeling like I don't belong. I hit them every morning at 8am after I drop my daughter off at school. Great way to start the day. I feel so uplifted and at peace with everything. It's amazing how all the things that I can't control have been put to the back of my mind, and I don't even stress on it. My shoulders are a lot lighter and all of this just after 1 week of everyday meetings. Listening to everyone, talking to other new comers and sharing our stories. I honestly wish I listened to the message a long time ago.

I love AA. It has been a blessing so far as the support is amazing!

The dreadful morning after my last drunk(4 days ago), I realized I had finally surrendered too. Nice post.
