Thank you. It's been hard the last few days. First, the thought of alcohol was popping into my head during difficult situations but it would end with that. Last night and today I have been having some serious cravings. I'm about to head off to my 3rd meeting of the day. It's hard, but I'm trying to stay in the faith and really take in all the wonderful things the program has to offer.

 Chaya, ... 

None of us here could ever adequately describe to you the 'wonderful things' we come to receive thru this program ...

Early in the process of changing our 'way of thinking', we must remain focused on the prize, sobriety ... Since our most 

recent way of thinking got us into the state we're in, we become convinced we must change ... but seldom do we realize 

the rewards of doing so til we all of a sudden find ourselves laughing and enjoying life again ... then we realize, all will be okay ... 

 

It's the kind of feeling that Tasha has been exhibiting through her posts ... it's a beautiful process to watch the growth of another ... 

Chaya, don't fight sobriety, let it happen, embrace it for the miracles it WILL provide to you ... 

 

Love You and God Bless,

Pappy
