Alcoholism Support Group

Alcoholism is the continued consumption of alcoholic beverages, even when it is negatively affecting your health, work, relationships and life. If you think alcohol is causing you to lose control, it's time to seek help. Our group is a safe place to vent, check in, get back up if you fall, and reach sobriety.

Without accepting the fact that everything changes, we cannot find perfect composure. But unfortunately, although it is true, it is difficult for us to accept it. Because we cannot accept the truth of change, we suffer. Shunryu Suzuki

"The most important thing to remember is this: To be ready at any moment to give up what you are for what you might
become."~W.E.B. DuBois

"There came a time when the risk to remain tight in the bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom."~Anais Nin

I realize that the one constant of life is change. Accepting the truth of change holds many wonderful possibilities if we stay on the path of Recovery.

Excellent observation. People are so afraid of change. The only way to survive and thrive is through never ending change. That is what makes life wonderful.

Ch ch changes... I needed to embrace change Billy. Didn't like it at first. It was uncomfortable, but I needed to get get uncomfortable because my comfort zone was killing me. Now I look forward to change, it's exciting. You never know what's around the next corner. But most of the changes needed were within me.
