As an alcoholic the difference for me is that I did allw myself to play and take breaks from the daily grind, through alcohol. I found I was soooo busy taking responsibilty, that I would drink for relief. And finally the illusion opf relief was all I had. Now I am busy, busy, busy but I have learned that I don't have to do everything and there is time for everything in due course. I have relief now but it is the relief in knowing I am taken care of, that I don't have to do the taking care... if that makes sense.Kathy Lynnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12808513070742589781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904990175885851041.post-5052049668091016332008-02-09T20:43:00.000-05:002008-02-09T20:43:00.000-05:00What a wonderful post.
