    The Journey begins here so get YOUR ASSES IN GEAR!!!!

    Hey Mama,
    Thank you for the invite! While I admire many on this thread, I dont really feel like I am part of your family here - not that I wouldnt be welcomed with open arms!. I am actually considering leaving MWO, at least for a while. Seems like everything is about drama these days - I needed this place for support, which I recieved, unconditionally. During all of this, I have neglected my wife; I need to get my home life straightened out.
    I intend to stay with you Mama, as I want to be there when you say "I win!" I know you are close.

      Road, sometimes it's best to really sort our priorities. I too have spent way too much time here, and on the computer in general. Real life IS out there, and that's where we have to live, and make it work.
      Please, though, if you do get a few minutes here and there, check in and let us know where you are. After a long time here, I've found this little thread, and our Yoda T, is where I belong. These are the most caring, inspiring, REAL people I know. It seems I'm attacked on every level in other places (not blaming anyone but me for that) and over the last years I've been embroiled in true life-and-death struggles that took a toll on me. That's the nature of the illness, but I know now I only have so much to give, and each person must face their on piper.
      These are the dearest people in the world to me, and we count you as part of us. Please don't leave forever, just go with love and acceptance and make your life a good one. This place, these people, have blessed me, and helped me move on past the train wreck I was 2 years ago.
      Love,
      Rubes

                  Ruby-thank you for letting us know about your father-in-law - and your friend's Mom. I am so glad that it is "only" a benign cyst....prayer works. Hope his pain is better. It's so good that you & your hubby are right there for your in-laws (I know-sometimes it doesn't seem good - LOL).

                  Mama-we don't "put up" with you....you silly bird! We love you and look forward to your posts. I'm really happy that you are doing so well-it's great that you ignored your cravings last night!

                  Road-Ruby & Mama are so right - this is a great group of people, so caring and definitely not judgmental at all. Hope you visit us anytime you want - day or night! You are always welcome here - our doors are always open!

                  Vicki-where are you, my sweet friend? APB time!!
                  Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly. Leave the rest to God.

                      Good morning, family. I'm sorry I haven't posted much this week. It's been a rough one and honestly, I'm feeling depressed. Things are fine with hubby. Thank you all for your love and encouragement. Grateful, thank you for calling me. You are so sweet and I love you to pieces! MB and Biz, I am so proud of you! Road, I got your pm this morning and I AM SO TERRIBLY SORRY that I have in some way made you feel cheated out of YOUR progress in staying sober and I am so very proud of you. You are right and I am wrong. I do not have 6 months sobriety. I have only been trying to get sober for 6 months. PLEASE FORGIVE ME! You obviously have a problem with me and I am so very sorry. Why don't you stay here and I will leave? I never want to discourage anyone and I am so very sorry I have discouraged you! I love you all very much and I am going to keep my distance for a while. I am so very sorry and I love all of you so much!

                      What is "Sober"
                      This thread was created in response to the thread "Sick of being sick is six months sober". I guess instead of addressing you one on one, I created a thread, to try to justify what I was feeling. I am done with this now, you do not need to reply. we have common friends and I do not wish to upset them. I just wanted you to know.

                      Then I found this post about me.
                      What the HELL is happening here ???
                      You and I have interacted before, in a positive way. The thread I started was not an attack on Moderators, and I do not have any illwill against moderators. Hell when I started this journey, thats what I wanted but i ended up on a different path. My thread was directed against one member and instead of addressing them personally, I took the cowards way out and posted a thread. My problem is not that some one is moderating and posted they were sober, my problem is that this person proclaims to be sober even though they have gotten drunk 7 times in the last 6 months and takes credit that they have been sober for 6 months. I have been in what I consider "sober" for the same amount of time, and I did not get drunk once during that time hence i felt that anyone can just post that they are "sober" and get congratulated for it. Modders are people who are or are trying to continue to drink but in a controlled manor. I have no issue with that at all.
                      I'm not what I should be, I'm not what I could be. I'm definetly not who I want to be,
                      but I'm sure not who I used to be!

                      There is no pit so deep that God's love is not deeper still.

                        Vick, we each have a journey. You have NO need to apologize for yours. We each have opinions, and we know what those are! We cannot be all things to all people, nor can we influence them past what they truly want.
                        You are a treasure here. I'd rather never post again than never see your sweet words here. Just be yourself. That's all we can ask for. Roadie will find the right level, as we all do. Let's go back to being lovingly supportive to everyone's journey, and focus on ourselves, in the most positive way. We ARE good people, fighting a bad thing. But our paths are different, as they should be. There is no judgement, no blame here.

                              Is there room for one more here? I'm trying to find a home. I never felt I could come here because I am still struggling so bad and you all seem to be AF. Is there anyone here that is still struggling?
