RE: I Tried to Change An Alcoholic - I Tried

in #life8 years ago

I am pretty amazed at the influence that Oprah has on people. Once I heard one of her shows. She says sensible things, but those that are absolutely trivial and that everybody know anyway.
Thus, I cannot imagine how her words could change anybody’s life. A person’s got to be so unsure of their own thoughts and convictions that they need a confirmation. Weird.
Anyhow, glad you made it through the difficult circumstances.

@mgaft1 - I understand exactly what you are saying, and I almost left it out of my story. You accurately describe who I was at the time though. Maybe it wouldn't work on me now, but at the time, I was 20 something, and at home all day. So, her helping to identify what my issue was... Made a difference. It was a starting place. I took the ball after that.

In the end, I am glad you were able to do whatever was necessary to change your life for the better.

Cheers
