It took me over a week to get there...(well, technically 17 years)....but I managed to drag myself into a meeting tonight. It was like I never left. However, the one thing I noticed in myself that had changed was the humility, or lack of. I found myself wanting to share 'the answers' to thoughts shared. It took a lot for me to share briefly only where I am right now. But it was harder for me not to want to share hope. All but one person there has less than 90 days sober and I soooo wanted to share everything I had learned in those 5 years with AA. Instead, I shared about how I thought I was 'cured' and took myself out of the rooms and how unmanageable my life was now. Hopefully, today is a new beginning.
