Welcome and tell us a bit about you! Why are you here?
Hi, I'm Dave, an alcoholic. Since sobering up I have imersed myself in the AA program. I spend most of my time with alcoholics/addicts in recovery, and read as much as I can to strengthen my program. I have visited several sites similar to this, and have found them lacking, in various ways. Whenever wherever someone reaches out, the hand of AA should always be there, and a site like this is sometimes the first contact a person "thinking about it" may have. If I happen to be here at that time, I would want to reach out, and do for others, what I could not do for myself. Simple. The program of AA has done so much for me, and by the grace of God, I have had so many miracles happen to me since I let go, and let God. In a relatively short time in this program, I have found peace, and serenity. The promises talk about sometimes slowly, sometimes quickly they come to us, if we are dilligentlly working for them. I have been blessed with so many things, and my life has turned around completely since the morning of my last drink when I woke up with a rope tied around my neck, and feeling so upset that even drunk I could not take the leap out of my 3d floor window. The hand of God works in my life daily. This program takes work, and it takes a decision to DO the things that the big book says will work. Today, I live this program, and venues such as this might allow me to somehow touch another's life, as this progam of AA has with mine.
Back atcha, my friend. I believe that '11 will be interesting and amusing...
Hugs,
Dennis

Thanks Keith for the friendship request. I just added you as my 2nd friend here on this site. I haven't really been around that much? That's why I don't know anyone. I spread myself too thinly on other sites. Too many other sites so now I am trying to delete alot of the one's I'm not gonna keep going to? I hope that we can share in Recovery and help others and help ourselves in the meantime. Thanks Debra Rincon Lopez (Debrinconcita) Sober life is great, God is great, his help is what I needed to Work it!
