Sue D. is an amazing Al Anon speaker! Some of you might have heard her before, she does an awesome workshop with Keith D. we have posted under our Full Workshops tab at our homepage. This tape is her telling her story. VERY powerful and moving share! :) • Al-Anon / Alateen, known as Al-Anon Family Groups, is an international fellowship of relatives and friends of alcoholics who share their experience, strength, and hope in order to solve their common problems. They help families of alcoholics by practicing the Twelve Steps, by welcoming and giving comfort to families of alcoholics, and by giving understanding and encouragement to the alcoholic. • ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- • After a while I began to wonder why I was not as happy as I ought to be, since the one thing I had been yearning for all my married life [Bill's sobriety] had come to pass. Then one Sunday, Bill asked me if I was ready to go to the meeting with him. To my own astonishment as well as his, I burst forth with Damn your old meetings! and threw a shoe as hard as I could. • This surprising display of temper over nothing pulled me up short and made me start to analyze my own attitudes. ... My life's purpose of sobering up Bill, which had made me feel desperately needed, had vanished. ... I decided to strive for my own spiritual growth. I used the same principles as he did to learn how to change my attitudes. ... We began to learn that ... the partner of the alcoholic also needed to live by a spiritual program. — Lois's Story in How Al-Anon Works • Please share with anyone, anywhere at anytime! • Connect with Odomtology 12-Step Recovery Social Media at: • Twitter - http:/www.twitter.com/odomtology • Facebook - / odomtology • Pinterest - / odomtology • Namaste, friends :)
