Sober for Six

I am sober for six months as of today.  I reflect on the path traveled and that which lays ahead.  So hopeful I am now compared to the man I was 6 months ago.  I had so little life left in me and what was left was soon to be snuffed out by my own hands.  I could not live anymore with alcohol, and I could not imagine my life without it.  I had but a few choices, but I feel that I chose the right one.  Life is slowly getting better for me.  Much has to do with God's will, grace and mercy.  I am happy that my faith has been thus rewarded.  I am not proud though.  My higher power is doing for me, what I could not do for myself.  I am sure more troubles and difficulties will rain on me.  My faith will remain, my sobriety with it.  I embrace my new life and pray in absolute humility that God has given it to me
