12.12.12
16 years ago, after a week of binge drinking, I awoke and saw a reflection in the mirror that startled me. I saw clearly my father's face staring back at me.., and I vowed then and there to never see that reflection, again. I found an AA Meeting and began the slow journey of recovery and restoration. I post this, on the eve of my 16th Anniversary of Sobriety to allow all my friends in the various time zones to read my words of testimony and encouragement.
Whatever you're believing, praying, hoping will change.., CAN change, if you just approach the transition.., ONE DAY AT A TIME.
Sobriety has NOT made me wealthy.., nor has it been the catalyst for all of my dreams and visions coming true. In fact, things are oftentimes, unbearable. But through it all, by not drinking my cares and troubles away.., I live to fight another day.., with a clear mind and a sound heart. And, no matter what others might say, that is the point of it all.
SOBRIETY is it's own reward.
Everything else comes by Prayer and Supplication.., if you're clear enough to remember what you truly desire.
