Alcohol gave me wings to fly, then took away my sky. ~Anonymous
Today I am grateful...
- for lunch with my spiritual brother Dennis R
- that a change of eating habits has me feeling better
- for whispered prayers and those overlooked ones
- for a powerful gratitude offered to me by my beautiful sister
- that your Higher Power will give you a day blessed with love and happiness
When men and women pour so much alcohol into themselves that they destroy their lives, they commit a most unnatural act. Defying their instinctive desire for self-preservation, they seem bent upon self-destruction. They work against their own deepest instinct. As they are humbled by the terrific beating administered by alcohol, the grace of God can enter them and expel their obsession. Here their powerful instinct to live can cooperate fully with their Creator's desire to give them new life. ~12&12, pg. 64

Isn't the 12 x 12 powerful! I love that quote! Thank you for sharing it!
The Addiction Project? I get HBO but haven't heard of it. Remind me to talk to you about it later.
You and Bunny are adorable and thank your for sharing your positive perspective Scotty. :)
darn..I wish I had HBO, and I wish I had heard Boston speak. And I wish I could get a Bunny kiss.
I think HBO is offering a free weekend when the cornerstone film debuts, will let you know.
I am amazed at evey step discussion that I go to how much is in the 12 and 12 that I've read but don't remember... it's like the program for me. Every day a new beginning and a new chance at life. Thanks Scott
