Half way on in Alanon...
Permalink  

smile Sometime soon I will have bin in Alanon for half of my life... 31 years... a long time. I slept through 6 or 8 of those years... I was out of my wits for most of those years...evileye  but I kept coming back... and our higher power kept pouring love all over me...

all I had to do was to sit down, open my mouth and suck it in... biggrin

...ah caint find words to express my gratitude, and relief as having arrived at this point. I have a good life- a great life... around me my family seems to be happy and harmonious. Last weekend there was a major crisis, but it blew over quickly...

...it seems like a long time- 31 years... but it was over in a whisper- along with the pain the grief and the anger!

Thanks Alanon, and thanks to y'all...aww

smile DavidG.

I love what you said about it being over in a whisper.  That is so true.  Thank you for your post David and for being another miracle to behold.

Dear David

Thank you f or your very honest and loving share.  I too am along time member of alanon and as so grateful fo the program and for each member.  I believe the most important lesson that I  leaned in alanon was that life is never free of conflict.    All I need to do is to learn how to respond in a constructive manner

It is certainly  grand to be sharing the journey with you David.smile

David ...You've reach that point my sponsor use to talk about..."The half life" of our disease...the point where recovery time is the same as before we got in.  I've got 3 more years HP willing and then those three years will be serene and happy.  I relate to the whisper also...it came after the screams.   Enjoy my friend...Ho`omaika`i   ((((hugs)))) smile
