Sept. 8, 2024 - Readings in Rcovery: Step by Step

 

Step by Step

Sunday, Sept. 8, 2024

Today, choose to live in the solution of sobriety instead of the problem of alcoholism. Alcoholism isn’t a problem unless we feed it, and the Program strengthens us with the choice not to drink by guiding us through a thorough and honest inventory of ourselves with the purpose of deciding if drinking is worth the consequences it entails. I am an alcoholic. It’s not a problem as long as I choose not to drink, though. And I choose not to whine that I cannot drink responsibly or moderately because, as an alcoholic, I do not have the luxury of responsible and moderate drinking anymore. Today, I can choose not to drink and live in the solution of being sober instead of the problem of fighting not to drink. And our common journey continues. Step by step. — Chris M., 2024
