Day 36 - Acceptance- There was no choice

Jan 13

Written by: bnch999
1/13/2009 

I had no choice but to accept who and what I had become

Every bridge had been burned, and I had isolated myself on a island that no man dared to venture. Trust was thing I had taken advantage of and ruined without hesitation. I had shown no mercy to anyone that was close to me. In the beginning of my drinking career, I had used alcohol as the so called " social lubricant ". It help me fit in, it made me funny, it made me fearless and brave. No one ever told me it would make me lonely. I had thrown away every dream and hope I had with each deadly sip. In coming to terms with the truth, there was no choice anymore. I had to accept who I was and what I had to become. I am an alcoholic, and my path of destruction had to come to an end.

That is when the acceptance of truth left me bare and naked. My emotions were left exposed raw to the world. I had no choice but to accept that truth. Though I was scared, a higher power had stepped in and did for me what I could not do for myself. He brought me to AA, and that is where I began to learn. And today, I grasp the wisdom and knowledge he bestows to me.

His words come to me in every medium imagineable and unimagineable. I had to open my heart, and truly accept God. To give myself and my will to him. He has taught me through you that the world is not in my control. For that I am thankful. He has taught me I have to work, and the right and true thing to do will be what is the hardest thing to do. For that I am thankful.

Without this acceptance I would, most likely, be dead or better off dead. With this acceptance, I am finding peace and serenity. A new freedom and a new life.
