Where did it start? See, I always thought the progression of my disease began with my first drink and ended with my last. And I'm here to tell you, I've been around long enough to know that my disease did not end with my last drink, or I wouldn't be here today. And I have also written enough inventory to know that my disease did not begin with my first drink. The root of my disease is spiritual in nature, and it was there before I ever took a drink.
