I have so much gratitude and respect for Alcoholics Anonymous for truly giving me a life beyond my wildest dreams. I used to cringe when I heard that because my dreams were always bigger than what reality was at the time. As my sober years have grown so has my life, it has grown in ways that I never ever could have imagined, and in directions I could have never foreseen. When I apply and practice the principles, life really changes without much effort other than learning to take actions, and staying out of the results. There are so many promises that are guaranteed to happen by just working this thing one day at a time. I have no material wealth, no white picket fence home (I rent a room), I drive an old car, but I am surrounded by the light of a fellowship, Spiritual balance, forms of love I never knew existed, and I am clean and sober for many years. There are ups and downs, but my faith in the process has been unwavering. This past year has been the greatest of my life simply because I came to believe, I resigned from contempt, I stuck out my hand, I cleaned my house, I trusted the power, and I trudged the road, is this happy destiny? Well if it isn’t the road, then I must really be insane, but one of the promises is that I would be restored to sanity. So all in all I am living beyond my wildest dreams.
