    Fell into the hole again but not giving up this time.

    Someday I will walk down another street.

    “I walk down the street.
    There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
    I fall in.
    I am lost... I am helpless.
    It isn't my fault.
    It takes forever to find a way out.

    I walk down the same street.
    There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
    I pretend I don't see it.
    I fall in again.
    I can't believe I am in the same place.
    But, it isn't my fault.
    It still takes me a long time to get out.

    I walk down the same street.
    There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
    I see it is there.
    I still fall in. It's a habit.
    My eyes are open.
    I know where I am.
    It is my fault. I get out immediately.

    I walk down the same street.
    There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
    I walk around it.

    I walk down another street.”

    I vote to walk down another street.
    No matter how far you go or how fast you run, you can't get away from yourself. ....said at an AA meeting. It stuck with me.

      Not sure if this is going to post but wanted to share one of my posts. You are not alone.....
      Well, this is day 3 of my decision once again to stop drinking. When I sit and think about it ......it has been years of me saying this. Oh, I'll stop for a bit. Even a few months at a time. But......it's always the same. I start drinking again. I need to learn that I can not be the sociable drinker. So, here I am with two

          Never stop working at this. When you finally break free of AL's ball and chain, every bit of this pain and frustration will have been worth it.
