ALCOHOL ALWAYS LIED TO ME « Thread Started on Jul 6, 2005, 11:14am »
ALCOHOL ALWAYS LIED TO ME I Drank for Courage... and woke up night after night horrified. I Drank for Sophistication... and became crude. I Drank to find Peace... and ignited a war within myself. I Drank to be Friendly... and became argumentative and nasty. I Drank to be Sexy... and turned people off. I Drank so that I could Relate to Others... and I babbled. I Drank to put down Loneliness... and found myself retreating more and more into my shell. I Drank to Relax... and woke up tense. I Drank to be Entertaining... and became an obnoxious clown. I Drank to Live More Fully... and contemplated suicide. I Drank for Adventure... and discovered disaster. I Drank to be more Honest... and insulted my friends. I Drank to Quiet my Nerves... and woke up with hangover jangles. I Drank to Feel Better... and ended up sick and throwing up. I Drank to have Fun... and passed out in the middle of the party. I Drank to Pep Myself Up... and ended up exhausted. I Drank to feel Successful... a Big Shot... but ended up a failure. I Drank for Security... and became afraid of my shadow. I Drank to Feel Better about Myself... and ended up hating me. I Drank to prove I could handle Alcohol... and ended up knowing it controlled me.
A Friend asked... "But surely, now that you've been Sober awhile, it would take a lot of alcohol to put you back in that condition."
AA gives us an opportunity to recreate ourselves, with God's help, one day at a time. --Rufus K. "No matter what you have done to this moment, you get 24 brand-new hours to spend every single day." --Brian Tracy God says that each of us is worth loving. We stay sober together - one day at a time!
