AA and the Steps of recovery,
have shown me how to look at events in a different way.
I can now understand how some things,
which once seemed like major disasters
turned out to be blessings.
Certainly my alcoholism fits that category.
I am a truly grateful alcoholic today.
I do not regret the past nor wish to shut the door on it.
Those events that once made me feel ashamed
and disgraced now allow me to share with others
how to become a useful member of the human race.
The peaks and valleys of my life
have become gentle rolling hills.
