    A Sober Christmas?? No ******** Way!!!!

    Love the post about the Gratitude vs Deprevation...a valuable way of looking at it through new eyes...
    Whatever you invest in the circle of LIFE is what comes back to you. Multiplied. What you give to people is what they eventually give back to you. Don't do the math. Just increase your LOVE.

    BE HAPPY...BE CONNECTED...BE HEALTHY!

        Thank you! I feel much better now after reading as i was trying to talk myself into thinking I would be okay if I drank only for the holidays.... you've changed my thinking because yes I thought it would be a crap christmas!

        Great story...truly inspiring! I also had an episode with a barbie castle one year and a princess hut tent thing another year....ugh embarrassing! but completey preventable.


        thanks

                  I thought today was a good day to re-read one2many's post. I need to keep it handy this evening... I do not want tomorrow morning to be like "oh no...is it morning already..." like it has been for too many Christmases.

                  Thanks again one2many for sharing this one...:h

                    Oney, there's nothing I enjoy more than laughter through tears. You're a dear, precious girl for posting this story and inspiring so many here.
                    My love and admiration, as always and ever.

                    What might have been is an abstraction
                    Remaining a perpetual possibility
                    Only in a world of speculation.
                    What might have been and what has been

                      bump - as this excellent thread from last year has been referenced in another thread, I thought I would bump for all to consider....

                            This was a very powerful post when Oney wrote it andf I've thought about it a lot because it is so honest and so well-written.

                            I'm sure many newbies will read and learn.

                            Thanks, Oney. Do you do any writing because you're very good.
