BEING FREE

BEING FREE


Some psychologists believe that some people don't want to be free. In the middle of our addiction, we certainly had no freedom. We lost it all to the call of that fix, pill, or drink. We lost our freedom because we lost the power to decide how we wanted to behave. We had no choice.

Now we have a choice, and although we can never be free from our addiction, we can be free in our addiction! We can never be a former alcoholic or an ex-addict, but never again must we take those chemicals and destroy our being. The choice is ours.
Am I choosing to be free?

I pray to realize that if I let go and let God, I will be free.
