Today, even if my last drink was 24 Hours ago or even many 24 Hours ago, I have a choice to put my last drink another 24 Hours behind me or to ignore all I have learned either by experience or being in the Program. I have the choice to reinforce within myself the reality of the first step: that "(I) am powerless over alcohol," and at least be willing to believe in the possibility of a Higher Power referenced in the Second Step. Or I can re-empower alcohol to take control again and take me to the certainty of where continued drinking will take me. I may be insecure or uncertain about life without alcohol, but I can accept easily that it cannot be anything like the certainty if I give in. Today, my choice is to drink or not to drink. Experience is proof beyond doubt where I end up if I drink; the Program is proof positive where I can be if I don't drink. Today, grant that I choose wisely. And our common journey continues. Step by step. - Chris M., 2014
