The worst thing about when I was drinking heavily is that I don’t remember the terrible things I said when I was drunk, but the ones I love have to replay every single word when they see me :pensive:

My relief from that was working the steps and cleaning my side of the street and then not being responsible for how they reacted..... lifted that FN weight off of my shoulders for life.

Hey that’s beyond your control. You’ve done your part to the best of your ability, it’s time to forgive yourself and dedicate yourself and your energy to service work. That’ll set you free.

Sometimes all we can do is make a living amens, and give the rest to God, it’s all about his will and his timing.
