When somebody tells themselves and they say to God, God, please help me. I have reached the end. I cannot do this anymore. I am tired of being tired. I am sick and tired of being sick and tired. And then they find help. And they are desperate and they get help. And they are given all of these tools. And they find themselves on this beautiful pink cloud. You know, how do we keep them there? How do I prevent somebody else from the suffering and the struggles that I went through because I missed a little bit of lessons here and there perhaps I was too arrogant I was too egotistical I wasn't willing to let go completely of all of my character defects I was holding on to some of them because I think they were part of who I was. But if I put all of those things aside and I say, these are the lessons I have learned. And with the lessons I have learned, I can perhaps help somebody keep their one sobriety date and not having relapses and becoming chronic relapses and all of those things. Why can't I do that?
