For the 12th year in a row, I went to the District 34
Gratitude Dinner at the North Bellevue Community Center. For me, it my version of a large family
holiday dinner. It is a happy time with
lots of food, joy and love.
There were 10 of us from my Sunday night Steppin Up home group meeting.
The group had signed up to wash serving dishes after dinner during the
Alanon and AA speakers. They were done
by the time the Alanon speaker finished.
The AA speaker, Elton, had literally died from alcoholism and was
brought back to life by EMTs with heart paddles. He was definitely a real alcoholic. He will have 6 years sobriety in
December.
I am grateful for the AA program of recovery and the fellowship of
fellow trudgers in recovery on the road of happy destinies.
