It’s not just another story but one I have been working on for a while. In brief
It is my life’s story … He drank I waited. I prayed, I worried
No one thought I would stay with this man, they said I should leave
They never stop drinking they say and they point at me as see I told you so.
But who encouraged, who stopped blaming me. Who even loved the alcoholic for who
He was.
How did I help, well the copy written version of this story is not complete.
But let me say … I changed before he did. It is a long story short to share.
I stop spilling it into the sink … and looking for it. Among several other things.
Do it work … remember I changed before he did …
Some say AA I say good … but in the bible I found that I am precious child to God …
no matter what the world thought … (in short) many verses confirmed this. I built my self up on this
image God was showing me … and now no more low self esteem and now no anxieties … for
my road map was layed out … and not for just I but even him … Now married twenty-nine years and we celebrate
sober without AAs … with the birth of our second son Terry Lee Flowers Jr. born in 85 … which was a
blessing. Now we celebrate every year of my son’s birthday … as if it was his dad’s … because that day the son was
dad stopped drinking … and today he says … God told him (another story) but I know I changed before he
changed when I found the lord … Not an over night change but a change gradual. I am special and so are
you … you who live with a alcoholic or even drug addicted person. And even you that is addicted. You
are loved. Yes even you that is reading this … and it was put here for you to read and know …
