HI! I'm Wes......

[Stogi]

And I'm an alcoholic and an drug addict. I'm glad I found this forum. I like it's inclusiveness of the addict side of me. After all, I drank for the same reasons I got high. Anyway, I won't bore you with a long story because most of you could tell it for me..hahaha. I'm just glad to be here.:D

“Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these steps...” Alcoholics Anonymous, page 60

“He restores my soul.” Psalm 23:3


For what it's worth: Something was desperately wrong with me. I drank over it for years. But I never knew what it was until I was sober for some time in Alcoholics Anonymous: my soul was dark and empty, starving for spiritual nourishment; alcohol temporarily filled the void and relieved the agony; so, I returned to the bottle over and over, becoming addicted to alcohol. Alcoholics Anonymous offered me a program of recovery from my alcoholism and introduced me to a Higher Power who could nourish my soul. Applying the Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous and surrendering my will to God's daily now for a number of years has nourished this old soul. Still there are days I feel spiritually weak. On those days I know the driest spiritual desert is heaven compared the dark emptiness of before. I can never thank God and Alcoholics Anonymous enough for filling this once dark, dead soul with light and life.

Hi Wes,

Welcome to CRF:29:. We like to read daily readings, play word games, talk about our ESH, and drink coffee here:11:.

I have plenty of coffee, would you like a cup?

Haha... theres no such thing as a stupid question.
It stands for Experience, Strength, and Hope...

Welcome, Wes. A camel can go for days without a drink...the concept of the "camel chip" is pretty punny if you think about it for a while.

[Stogi]

But how many days can a camel go without a drink of coffee....hahahahaha
