K4D Rising #2

[K4D]

The AA meeting I went to was very interesting. It was an all mens meeting. They gave me a little red book. Everyone went around and told their story. They started out with the serenity prayer and ended it with the Lord's prayer. They read passages out of a big blue book which I think is the 12 step book. They also gave me a silver recovery coin. They welcomed me and everyone was real friendly and told me that this was the group to be part of. I told them it was harder being happy sober and they could all relate and said that this program teaches you how to do that. There were people in there worse off than me. It was quite an experience. They didn't say anything about the 90 days though. Afterwords I helped put away chairs so that someone could mop. Everyone was very very nice.

Tonite they are having a birthday celebration for someone that has been sober for a year asked me to come. The leader says he intends to get to know me much better.

So yes, I went to a meeting.

As far as favorite passages in the bible... I had been reading the 4 gospels and last nigth I spent time reading some chapters out of the book of Acts with the conversion of Saul and the works of the apostles using the Holy Spirit. I don't know if I have a favorite passage yet. There are a number of them.

CG, the answer to your question is obvious. Don't risk your life.

I hate the fact that I merely exist. That does bug me. I don't spend time with the girls to show their mom was a great dad I am. I do it because I enjoy them and I long to have my family with me.

And yes, by the way, I saw W's profile on meetup.com because I was trying to figure out what was going on tonite and she apparently joined some groups that I did and listed herself as a newly single mom. Say what you all want, but we are still married and separated. My profile says separated. But oh well.

What will I do this afternoon? I don't know.
