Two weeks! When will the arrests start? Hebrews 12:1 "Let us run the race that is laid out before us." Start winning, even if it's only yourself! Me, I'm day 23 sober today—I've thrown alcohol in GITMO. Trust in God. And believe in yourself. We struggle together, and WE WILL WIN, TO GET HER!

First AA meeting was on Friday. 7 days sober here.
Congratulations to you both!
I came to the same conclusion some time ago - we are at the "as below so above" lesson. It is the precipice where we MUST change, individually first, to effect change of the whole.
Like all of you, I'm certain, the enemy has thrown a death bloom of landmines into my life. When I find myself being "blown up" by them, it is time to pray, meditate, clean up and find my center.
Bring it on! The war is real. The most important battle of all is the one within ourselves. Choose each minute, each thought, each action wisely fellow warriors.

Congrats on taking that big first step, and it is a big step, between the AA meeting and 7 days sober! I haven't had a drink in about 7-8 months by now I think. I had quit for a while like a year before going to AA a couple times a week at least. For a little while I slipped away and had a couple drinks here and there, but even as those times I realized that alcohol just made me sick, I hated the taste, and had had enough time sober to realize I truly could exist without alcohol and living without it is indeed possible. So it didn't take much of any effort to really kick it since then, and I've been very happy with the result. I fell proud of the accomplishment, as you should definitely be too. I believe in you and hope you're able to succeed on your continuing sober path through life.
Thank you!
