I'm just sayin there was a time not so very long ago when hearing the stories of others would have left me unmoved. I'm not sure where in my own recovery this began to change; I'll just say what I witnessed in that room today took real courage.
I felt this meeting.That may not seem like much to a normal human being, but it's huge to me.
After a troubling 40-year relationship with alcohol, it's nice to know I can still feel anything. It's reassuring that I can actually feel something for other human beings that aren't directly linked to my own benefit in some way.
It makes me think maybe I'm really not the soulless bastard I sound like on this dumb blog. Sound like? Lulz, sure, pal. Fact is, this dumb blog is probably the truest thing I've ever written.
