Slips and Coming Back
I am always very thankful to people who come back to the rooms after having a slip. The longer I am sober the more thankful I am for these courageous soles. I am especially thankful for those who had amassed some significant time before going out. My gratitude is purely selfish, I can learn from their slip without having to experience one myself. I can learn that the disease does indeed continue to progress even though we a sober. I can learn that it does do "push up in the parking lot while waiting for us." I can learn that about the “agains” and the “yets” all from the comfort of my folding chair with a cup of coffee in my hand.
