The 12th Promise of AA says, "We will suddenly realize that God will do for us what we could not do for ourselves."
I Realized
I realized I was smiling
I never smiled much before
I felt safe and a t peace
two words I never understood
I found it easier to be honest
instead of lying and manipulating
I no longer hid from the truth
and I knew I wasn't alone
I realized that God was doing it
things that I couldn't do alone
He was doing it
I was living life
He comforted me... gave me strength
it was only possible
because I had the faith
that things would be better
when I surrendered
Yes, I am an alcoholic
thank you God for guiding me

I can relate to your drinking. But when YOU want to stop you will.
A very good writing.
GOD BLESS

Dave. A thrill to read this. honest outright down to earth writing. Makes a real change from those who'd rather write to entertain!
