I remember being in a detox unit in the hospital and I was amazed that I had gone three days without a drink. I couldn’t recall going that long without a drink.
I have not picked up a drink since. Initially, it was out of fear. Now it is because of the life I am living.
Knowing what I know now, the choices are plain to see – miserable existence or “happy, joyous, and free”.
I didn’t see it then. I see it now.
God, please help me to be ok today. Thank You. Amen.
