Well had one last criminal court date today and avoided jail once again thanks be to God. Now with the divorce also final I can get on with the next journey in my life and start looking for a apartment. Also was fearless today and had courage from my HP he had really been watching over me anyone who knows me here can testify to that. Getting better has a lot to do with your attitude. I've been given the thrust of trust with my HP. It's a good feeling to let go let God.
Change is attitude is HUGE Enigma! Glad to see The Program working for another Brother. Letting go and letting God is such a short quote/phase, but very powerful.
Hi,
I remember well the courts and the fears mixed with guarded hope in my higher power's ability to help me out.
Some where along the track I realized, Grace. I did not get what I deserved. I was let go.
I was grateful. That gratitude helped my desire to stay sober.
Which helped me dig deep into the steps.
Which continued to let me go to be free.
Which helped my desire to say sober longer.
Which is going on as I type ------ keeping the ball rolling.
Thank's for your post.

Great post Enigma ... ... ... it's not just the fact that I'm not in jail/prison today that makes me feel free, it's the fact also that I can choose to be free of 'King Alcohol' today as well ... I've been in jail more than once and it's no fun at all ... but it's worse when King Alcohol has the jail cell door keys ... being locked behind the doors of alcohol is the worst feeling of being 'trapped' that I've ever known ...
Welcome to 'recovery' ... it's where real life begins and grows ... ... ... enjoy the journey ...
