Created to carry the message of recovery to all addicts. Whether the addiction is alcohol, drugs, food or any other addiction the program of recovery is the same. I am a recovering alcoholic of over twenty-seven years, a day at a time of course and I believe my primary purpose is to stay sober and help other alcoholics achieve recovery.

The Eye Opener #essentialsofrecovery
To us alcoholics who were prone to give meaning to words that were not intended by the speaker, words are a particularly lethal weapon.
In our drinking days, we invariably put the wrong interpretations on the best-intended words of our friends. We then sounded off with a flow of words that we did not mean and knew full well that we did not mean them. The thoughtless sentence or the fancied slight was forever coming between us and those we loved.
The world’s attitude toward us, either friendly or hostile, is largely determined by our own words.
