"this is something i wrote 6 months ago i been sober that long"
Dear alcohol, For years you worked best for me when I needed not to feel. You where my best friend but you’re turned on me. You demanded my time even helped me ignore my pet. You destroyed my well being and took my self-esteem and left me with nothing but an empty feeling- you had me in your grips and raped me of my self-worth tortured me when I was down and left me with no friends- you promised me self confidence and left me with shame you promised me companionship but yet I was always alone – you gave me the courage to say what I wanted to say but the words where filled with filth and shameful things. You filled my spirits but the spirits where dark. You helped me lie when it would have been easier to tell the truth you had me in your grips thinking one would do me but 22 followed you had me wish god would take me dead when I really wanted to live. You have taken good jobs from me stoled for me and lied my way into the next drink. You promised me all I could be –but what I became was a DRUNK. Well NO MORE!!! This is goodbye alcohol!! I no longer need to function in life. You see I have GOD and a FELLOWSHIP that can give me more that what you could ever give me...I have 12 steps to freedom AND YOUR NOT INVITED! For as many people as you kill a year. I won’t give you the satisfaction of being one of your victims. No more will I allow you to control my life. No more will I have to sacrifice love ones to you – n0 more will I have e to keep saying am sorry for the things I say under your spell or hurt anyone else NOT FOR YOU!! So this is goodbye alcohol our friendship is over the times we spent are history and your history from my life you can no longer try to kill me Goodbye my deadly friend Ps .now that you’re gone I can be a giver not a taker Cuz takers are losers |

keep on fighting the good fight. I'm still trying to take it one day at a time cause that's all I can handle. Maybe I should have written one of those letters when I first came around.

Congrats my friend, keep trudging the road to happy destiny, O.D.A.T.! You will meet many of us along the way, and share in a way of life that is truely amazing. There will be rollercoasters in life, but you will begin to know when to be on the ride and when to get off. (will intuitively know how to handle situations that used to baffle us.)
I'm glad you are here, and I am grateful for every one who practices the steps in their daily lives. Have a wonderful day, Harry |

Congrats on your sobriety. I believe too many people believe in life that escaping it is the best policy and through this philosophy we have way to many people using all kinds of things as an escape mechanism when in truth to truly enjoy life one must be in it.
