[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 694314, member: 18958"] Darkwing, I have been in 12 step groups but not as a drug addict or alcoholic. Do you agree with this: I believe we all fail. Even the most learned among us fails. That she failed, and had the drink did not call into question her learning or her humility. What it was was her humanity. We can always be felled. We can never have it made in the shade. Except now I am understanding better your point of view, and perhaps her own, when she returned humbled. Nothing stands in the way of our being a drunk, except our distance from that first drink. What she got was sloppy, not fearless. She forgot to be afraid. What do you think was in her mind as she ordered it that drink? Do you think she felt like she had it made? I do not. I believe she wanted that drink. What do you think she told herself, as she reached for it? [/QUOTE]
