Beth J. Says:

When I was drinking, I forgot how to live. Life consisted of getting booze, drinking it, trying to hide that I was drinking it, and suffering the aftereffects (which I learned to medicate with more alcohol). Today I feel like I am really living. I wake up feeling good (no morning jitters) I can look at and appreciate my surroundings, and I enjoy doing things again. I thank my higher power on a daily basis for freeing me from the bondage of alcohol and allowing me to live again.
