Ruth Says: I finally succumbed to the messages God was giving me and to the proddings of a fellow recovering alcoholics to look for help. That was in 1997. After six years of therapy, totalling another car, divorcing the husband and several relapses, I have become a better person, more stable, more joyful, more clearminded about myself and with tremendous will to help any other person in the same wagon. My search for the spiritual me is passionate and has taken over the will to drink entirely.
Note: The "Thoughts of the Day" are from members of various 12 step programs. Some will are A.A., some Al-Anon, and some Adult Children of Alcoholics. Take what you need and leave the rest!
