AWESOME.
Do you feel a shift now, after writing that? Has your relationship with alcohol changed inside you (even if yo have not yet given it up)? Do you feel more in control of yourself now than before?

I'm just curious - I know from experience that writing something so powerful can be very instrumental in bringing about a paradigm shift.

I wish you the best on this journey, and encourage you to hang here with us at MWO. A very supportive group, and we are in all stages of healing - from still drinking daily but hopeful to long-term abstainers, and everyone in between.

WHAT a great idea!!

Dear Booze.............

You broke my life. And I have to glue it back together.

I look in the mirror and see the evidence of you.

I listen to my little girl and hear the repetition of your voice.

I lose a day and know that you have it in your hand.

I know you will kill me, but I give you my life.

I pull away and fall back in.

But I will beat you.

I will.

Ah, Kingfish, I wish I could summon up the hatred you feel for Prince Al, but I must sorrowfully admit that I don't blame him; it was ME who was weak, sneaky, dishonest, and destructive. My "friend" did not betray me. He was merely there, as he has a perfect legal right to be (since Prohibition, anyway) and harming no one who did not seek his company too often. He would always bow gracefully into the background, when told "enough is enough;" it was ME who kept hanging around and chatting him up---sometimes all day long! I have many friends (and a spouse) who know him him, but only as an acquaintance, not a best friend and constant companion. They like him, but can go for days or weeks without seeing him.

I don't know if I can merely be his casual friend him after our passionate history together; perhaps a clean break is best. It won't bother him; he'll have plenty of others who court him by the gallon. I haven't much missed him this year, but I know he'll pop up here and there...and will I succumb to his charm? I hope not.
