Evening Meditation:
Like a scene from The Exorcist, there was a time when I felt as equally possessed by alcoholism as Linda Blair's character felt possessed by the Devil. At one point, we both would have done anything to make it stop.
What makes alcoholism and other addictions even worse is that for most people, hitting bottom is a complete nightmare and each successive relapse is a recurring, worsening nightmare.
"A tough lesson in life that one has to learn is that not everybody wishes you well."
