It occurred to me that every single thing that I wanted in my life had to come after drinking. The drinking was beyond anything I could take care of. You know, people talk about a moment of clarity. Of course, until I had one, I didn t think they were true, and it was for the first time I saw myself from the outside, in stark reality, to being completely powerless over alcohol.
