And I say that because I've never met anyone who said "I'm so grateful that I think I'll get drunk."
We addicts and alcoholics usually move in one of two directions once we get sober.
We're grateful that we were saved from ourselves. And we want to stay that way.
Or else we find that without alcohol and drugs we still can't stand ourselves. So to cover up our misery it's back to chemicals.
It takes humility to admit we screwed up our lives. But that humility has a certain attractiveness to it.
It draws others to us and makes them want to help us along the path.
