Note to Blueshirts

Hello, Blueshirts:

I have acted out twice this week - Monday and Thursday. I don't think I am taking it all very seriously. Perhaps I need to go listen to some "First Step" talks and remind myself of the consequences of acting. What are the costs? What are the risks?

And I also have to say that I haven't really even enjoyed acting out. I feel doubly robbed. I gave up my sobriety and got very little in return.

After I have acted out I can look back and see where I could have said "no." I need to find this point in the process before I act out. Where is that time when I can still stop myself and surrender my body to Christ instead?
