Unchangeable Fact
We try never to lose sight of the unchangeable fact of our alcoholism,
but we learn not to brood or feel sorry for ourselves or talk about it all the time. We accept it as a characteristic of our body -- like our height or our need for glasses, or like any allergies we may have. Then we can learn to live comfortably -- not bitterly -- with the knowledge that as long as we start out by simply avoiding that first drink (remember?)
just for today.
