Real alcoholics cannot let up for a moment in acknowledging and attempting to arrest it. Coming to the realization that you are an alcoholic is not such a big step, however, sending it into remission is another step altogether. It is a haunting that doesn't let up. It looks for any weakness, thought, or set back that will allow it to put one locked up or covered up. AA is a treatment that does modify the behavior that leads to the drink. And for those of the hopeless variety, there is no answer but a to be forever in pursuit of a relationship with God.

The only disease that tells you everyday that 'you don't have a disease'. I've been thinking about Gary everyday since I left the house. I can't, just can't lose my brother to this...Bohemian Cowboyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17106578522099021236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4749424911811197625.post-51520062019472044632010-04-22T15:23:08.639-07:002010-04-22T15:23:08.639-07:00I always 'knew' actually a spirit told me....I always 'knew' actually a spirit told me..when my sister in law would be going to the hospital to have a baby...I would call her up and say today is the day--she'd say..oh no-I feel great and my feet are too dirty....but sure enough it was the day...I did that to her 6 times,she had 2 stillborns and one live a short while and had 3 live births.<br />Will tell you about the old couple who visited us when we first built our home here(They were deceased) -some other time...
