Peace
Most of us feel we need look no further for Utopia.
We have it right here and now.
Each day in my friend's kitchen multiplies itself in a widening circle
of peace on earth and good will to men.

Good morning! I'm Marco, a grateful alcoholic. The holidays are very sensitive for me since 6 years ago losing my grandma and my mom. But this is the first Christmas in years I've been sober, and I'm earning the respect of my partner's parents. I've been invited to their house for Christmas. I'm so thankful that I won't be alone. Many times during the holidays, I was drunk or sick with DT's and life did not matter. I'm changing my ways as I progress in AA, and what a treat it is to not be sick from drinking and actually have people in and out of AA who care. This is really a blessing for me. Thank you.
