There is a war that goes on inside each and every one of us who struggles with alcohol or drugs. The battlefield is our soul and minds; moreover, when it kicks into full gear, it destroys what ever it comes in contact with. It is not a respecter of persons, nor does it care what your stature in life is. That war will drag you down to the pits of hell, and the sad reality is that you may not know it until the very end. It will take your wife and children, your job and home; it will put you under a bridge or sleeping on a heating grate with no food for days on end. But those are not the worst things that can happen to you. Your internal war will make you feel lost and alone, taking every shred of self-respect until there is nothing left inside except contempt for your very existence. There will be an emptiness unlike anything you have ever known, and the will to live will be taken from you. But there is hope and, you can have victory over that which wants to kill you. This book has the answers you seek.
Yazar hakkında
I started my alcoholic journey around the age of twelve years old, drinking to escape reality. I liked the taste and the effects of it. I continued to drink until the age of twenty-nine, with it getting progressively worse. I ruined everything I came in contact with. I now live in west central Wisconsin with my wife of thirty-five years. I have been sober by God’s grace for more than thirty-seven years. I enjoy fishing and giving back what I have been freely given. Life today is what I make of it, as I have a choice where I once didn’t. It was a journey I would never have imagined for myself, but in the end it was worth it because of the things I was taught along the way. Life isn’t fair, but I had to learn to play the cards I was dealt while remembering that I was the one that dealt them.
