Default More About Alcoholism




Baffling

from: "More about Alcoholism"

"But there was always the curious mental phenomenon that parallel with our sound reasoning there inevitably ran some insanely trivial excuse for taking the first drink. Our sound reasoning failed to hold us in check. The insane idea won out. Next day we would ask ourselves, in all earnestness and sincerity, how it could have happened."


© 2001, Alcoholics Anonymous, page 37

- The Hoffelds



When I came into recovery, I knew there was a God and I knew I wasn't insane. After a year in recovery, I didn't know who God was, and realized I was insane. Thus started my spiritual journey, because I was so baffled because I was soooooooo sure!

God is as He reveals Himself to me in today. It was important to remain teachable.

H.O.W. WORKS! Honesty, Open-Minded, and Willing with myself, with my God, and with others.
