A miracle!
33 days ago I realized that I was completely powerless and my life had
become unmanageable. I hit my bottom and wanted this program with the desperation
that only the dying can have. I felt incomprehensible demoralization and I
saw just how insidious this disease was. I finally surrendered and I knew that
all I had to change was *everything*. I had hit my point of willingness to do
whatever it took and I have the willingness to go to any lengths. At one
point, I thought I would die the death of an addict but 32 days later, I am
filled with so much hope and joy-- so much more than I even thought that I would
ever feel again. I used to feel so empty, lonely, and I just hated myself.
All I knew was that I was an addict and I wanted more, more, MORE...and I just
wanted to destroy, destroy, destroy myself.
Today, I no longer want to destroy myself. I love working the program and it
has given me so many blessings in my life. The best part is that there is
even more that has yet to be revealed to me and by working this program, I am
slowly uncovering this beautiful moments and aspects. I am a whole, totally
new person that I was 32 days ago. I am very grateful for God, the program, and
SR. I am growing in so many ways and I am here to tell anyone who has lost
hope, that you can do it. Be willing to do whatever it takes, and the
miracles will be open to you.
Thanks for letting me share.
Love,
Cheryl
