...Year . 2012
The last two posts were written by a man named Sam Shoemaker . Among his many life's notes is being good friends with Dr. Bob and Bill W. , the founding members of AA . Sam was a priest . Bob and Bill looked to him for guidance in formatting the wordings of the 12 steps . Sam would denied it but many have said he is a founder of AA too .
In two posts I shared Sam's long poem . It is a reminder of ways I want to live my life . To share what I have . A gift of sobriety and a relationship with god . I had a wonderful year and fantastic Christmas . I look forward to more of the same this year . I know as long as I do not drink I will be taking steps in the right direction to being happy , joyous and free .
When problems do come I will be wise about my solutions . Nothing can be made better with booze . Nothing can be made to go away with booze . Booze will only delay and multiply my issues .
So be happy and enjoy life . Embrace ever moment of it . We only have this very moment right now .
Love you , Jaybird
