Subject: sucessful recovery
Message:
The long term sober pesons in AA state that you are always in recovery. There are danger times (5-7 years, 10-12 years) when many relapse. Complacency and the committee in the head can ambush you at any time. The AA program also stresses freedom of choice. Therefore, successful recovery to me is the choice made that I can never drink again in my life and that I must stay sober, under all conditions, one day at a time
