my greatest victory: admitting defeat

seems odd to admit this at first………………………my ego wants to get in there and say” so sad, that’s it ”

but i have to drop the ”poor me ” and think about what has happened in the last 13 years and 318 days………………straight up

”miracles”

i have had the same job for 8 years and it’s great, I am married and my wife claims she loves me ” most ” of the time, what do you expect…………still a butt hole sometimes, i have grad-kids that have never seen me intoxicated, confused yes…………intoxicated no, my family relationships aren’t strained or taxing…………………what’s not to like

i am blessed and grateful and getting better with the help of God and people with the same goal in mind

a purposeful, compassionate and caring life, giving service and respect……………..don’t leave that out, to others

my greatest victory will always be the morning i woke up on a Sunday and said ” i can’t do this anymore”
