LIVING OUR AMENDS

Daily Reflections - June 13

"Years of living with an alcoholic is almost sure to make any wife or child neurotic. The entire family is, to some extent, ill."

ALCOHOLICS ANONYMOUS, p. 122

It is important for me to realize that, as an alcoholic, I not only  hurt  myself,  but  also  those  around  me.  Making amends to my family, and to the families of alcoholics still suffering,  will  always  be  important.  Understanding  the havoc I created and trying to repair the destruction, will be a lifelong endeavor. The example of my sobriety may give others hope, and faith to help themselves.
