PITIFUL INCOMPREHENSIBLE DEMORALIZATION

Today is a great day! When I awoke I didn’t have to run to the window to see if my truck was in the driveway-in one piece. I didn’t have to worry about the apologies I would need to make. I didn’t have the remorseful feeling and shame that comes with taking the first drink and wondering ;how could I have done this again? All my life I had wondered how in the hell could I live my life without drinking and what would everyone think if they knew I was alcoholic? What a joke, why are we the last to figure out we have a drinking problem? Today I’m free, free from the bondage of alcohol. But I need to remember that I am one arms length from the first drink.
