We need to change our life by knowing that a bad routine needs to end. To begin a better one. How to change is going to a rehab. Changing our worthless way of thinking to a better way. Rehab will teach you how to do it. Just do what they tell you. What to change into is starting with an interest we have and be more devoted to it. We start with ourselves first. Analyze the problems within then the cause. We can solve other people’s problems but not our own. This strange confusion is among us. With a small amount of maturity the power within will impress us. In our everyday walks of life learning experiences will emerge. When we live each day with a complete reform of ourselves we see us on the top of our form.

Think of what 12 drunks will get you compared to the 12 steps. With addictions use every issue becomes 12 times more serious. 12 less unmanageable issues. 12 times closer to sanity. 12 decisions to turn our lives over to the will of God. 12 entries on our moral inventory list. Admitted 12 wrongs. Removed 12 defects of character. Removed 12 shortcomings. Made amends to 12 people we have harmed. Made 12 direct amends to the persons we have harmed. Took personal inventory and listed 12. 12 conscious contacts with God. Had a spiritual awakening and carried it to 12 alcoholics for them to practice daily.

Living the 12 steps is a cheaper and better way to live.

“By the dozens”

Reflections during the morning after a drunk. The fear, Wonder,Embarrassment. What happened last night?Don’t remember too much and avoid hearing about it. Binge after binge. How can we live this way? Walking along the street looking down at our shoes feeling small. We should know by now that no one is comfortable being drunk. Relax and feel the comfort with a healthy mind and body. Perhaps there is a discipline problem we were never aware of. Holding us back from making progress in life. Sorting out the bad elements in our character. Tough guy,Macho,Champion. I’ve seen guilt and remorse strong enough to crumble them to the ground. For years after he was only a pile of mush. The addictions built him up instead of the Bible. We hid from the disgrace of our actions. Now we can hide from the disgrace of the lifestyle. How much more has to happen to us before we say farewell to drug use and welcome with open arms the life of sobriety. Living with the amount of disgrace that one binge can hold is enough to make us want to turn away from addictions but no we go back for more.

This is the morning after is this your final disgrace?

Sorry we have offended God as well as ourselves. Insulting having to admit we are slow in learning. Pray,ask to be forgiven,then back to our bad habits. Is this the life the Bible encourages us to live? Why not live the good life the Bible teaches us? What is more important in life? Why live with remorse over and over? Because we enjoy it? The reason we don’t know better is because we never allowed sensibility in to replace it. Now that you know it exists start living it. Having a caring soul and loyalty to the word of God. In my days of drunkenness I wanted a better way of life. I found it all through the Bible. Make a lifetime promise to yourself, your mate, and to God. Days of improvement ahead. Time to end our evil ways. Being dishonest and lying and cheating ourselves is the worst. Staying closer to the Bible and staying sober is the best. If we don’t like the endless beginning and ending end the evil ways and never start again.
