Realizing that we're alcoholic doesn't mean that life is over. It just means it's the end of our good drinking. We can go on drinking but it won't be any good now that we know we're alcoholic. Ironically that's when life really begins for us. When we stop drinking. The new way of living that we find in sobriety far exceeds any and all expectations we may have ever had about living. We find things we didn't even know about, and experience living on a whole different plane. This new life is a design for living life on life's terms. It' is a life no one should miss out on.
