Powerful words that I'm sure don't suit you now. I think you you write another acrostic titled Sober or Sobriety. Hugs

Cecilia, how very good to hear from you. Thank you for your kind comment. I am Blessed beyond measure to have 38 years of sobriety and to have a dear friend like you to be kind enough to say what you did. I will certainly write another acrostic soon.

Thanks, Gordon! Although my entry got an NA, I still feel it is worth the entry. I am Blessed beyond measure and the past 38 years have been much more than fruitful. Had I not given up my addiction and turned my life over to our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, I can only imagine where I might be today. Thanks for your vote of confidence and friendship.
