Isolation

After 8 years without a drink I still have alcoholism and sometimes I believe what it tells me.

My disease tells me that I don't need anyone.
My disease tells me that I don't need to pray.
My disease tells me that I don't need to go to meetings.
My disease tells me that I am not good enough.
My disease tells me that no one likes me,
that I am ugly,
that I'm fat,
that I'll always be alone…

My disease is a LIAR.
My disease wants me isolated so I believe these lies.

I have to work hard to hear the truth and the truth is

My Light tells me
I am smart and
I am loved.

The Universe tells me
I am powerful and
I am able.

My God tells me
I am worthy and that I am enough.

This truth sets me free.
