Patience and learning how to be still took time. There are still days I forget to be willing to do Gods will but I strive for that. Posting on here, going to meetings, talking with other alcoholics helps me to remember why I do this. Without the drink I did not know how to live on life’s term but now I have steps to help me. Great to see u on here.
sounds like u r on the right track. Awesome
As are you.
I hope you are doing well. Great to hear from ya.
Autobiography in Five Short Chapters Portia Nelson
Chapter I
I walk down the street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I fall in.
I am lost… I am hopeless.
It isn’t my fault.
It takes forever to find a way out.
Chapter II
I walk down the same street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I pretend I don’t see it.
I fall in again.
I can’t believe I am in this same place.
But it isn’t my fault.
It still takes a long time to get out.
Chapter III
I walk down the same street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I see it there.
I still fall in… it’s a habit… but,
my eyes are open.
I know where I am.
It is my fault.
I get out immediately.
Chapter IV
I walk down the same street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I walk around it.
Chapter V
I walk down another street.
Good morning everyone. Thank you everyone for sharing on this thread.
