Leave me alone now? This is just perfect! I've been on here since December of 2006! Where have you been all my life?!
Someone just repped my most Hard-Core post this morning and thanked me for my honesty and grace!
I've had over 7 reps in the last 2 days, some anonymously and some by non-members specifically about my 12 step posts.
Now I'm not going anywhere. If you'd like me to direct you to a more Middle Of The Road (MOTR) approach, I'd gladly give you information in a PM.
I stand right here. I'm sober, 5 years, 3 months, 12 days and counting. I'm coming up on 2000 days sober and free from mind-altering drugs. This is the longest I've gone ever! I had my first Black Berry Brandy at the age of 5! Now today, I don't even want a drink or a drug and it's not even really my doing.
All I do is follow a few simple rules (Alcoholics Anonymous... I don't care who knows it, as long as I never forget). I'm here to give a shout out about how simple those "few simple rules" really are, when we humans don't mess it up by either adding to it or subtracting from it.
Now honestly, are you part of the problem or part of the solution?
There again, I really really take this stuff deadly serious. It is live and death for me. I'm not interested in whay y'alls' motivation is in here. You ask anybody in here who knows me that I speak the Truth. I capitalize Truth because it's not mine. I'm just borrowing it and trying to give it away.
You want to be a recovered Alanon? That's fine. You gotta work steps too. I heard a recovered alanon at our Obsoberfest Convention in Pueblo Colorado. She said, "
He took a drink, and I felt better."
Now that's honesty. Where are YOU coming from?
