At first it was meeting after meeting after meeting, everyone has what seemed like assigned seating. going to the first one was freaking scary, I sat next to some big guy named Larry. the meeting started the with the lord's prayer, if you were late you might not get a chair. a topic of discussion is picked out the book 📚,as I sat there I felt like a crook. speaking for me wasn't on the agenda, as i stirred my coffee adding some Splenda. Chips are giving out for your sobriety, the More you get the more notoriety.i could barley talk or say my name,to me it was All just a game. days turn into months with some time under your belt, you look over at Larry and remember how you felt. Doctors,Lawyers, teachers, people you'd never think, teenagers, moms, grandparents seemed that everyone had a drink 🍷 alcohol is the devil 👿 it doesn't care, but with your higher power you could get it out your hair. You learn that one day at a time is oh so critical, do it correctly and your mindset becomes analytical. just over eight years free from alcohol, 3033 consecutive days with out dropping the ball. thanks you alcohol anonymous for opening these doors, maybe for birthday we can have s'mores.
My name is Johnny and I'm a massive alcoholic,I'm going to keep coming back because I'm worth it 🙂. Work work work!!
