Slip and Human Nature

[MajestyJo]

The normal thing for an alcoholic or addict to do is use. The miracle of God is that we have a daily reprieve and we can heal, and not use one day at a time.

Love is a force. It is not a result; it is a cause. It is not a product; it produces. It is a power, like money, or steam or electricity. It is valueless unless you can give something else by means of it.

—Anne Morrow Lindbergh

For so long, I stayed in my denial. I didn't have a problem. It was the fault of those around me. Many prayed, and yet I told them to pray more quietly because every time I heard them, I rebelled, and continued on my way, never accepting the help that was offered.

When I block out things, I isolate my soul and it gets isolated and not fed the spiritual food it needs.

So glad that people continued to pray for me.
