When I Finally Understood I Had Alcoholism, Not a Drinking Problem - AA Speaker - Don L.

Don L. from Bellingham, WA speaking at 10th annual beef dinner of the Mystic Knights of Sobriety group in Edmonton, Canada - June 9th 2010 Visit our website - Sober-Sunrise.com (http://sober-sunrise.com) Don’s story is a powerful testament to the transforming grace of Alcoholics Anonymous — from a life ruled by denial, destruction, and hopeless drinking to one anchored in faith, humility, and service. After years of rationalizing his pain and hurting those who loved him, he finally surrendered, found a sponsor who challenged him without compromise, and embraced the spiritual program of action. Through the steps, he learned that sobriety wasn’t just about not drinking but about giving back — becoming a man of purpose, gratitude, and love. Now decades sober, Don honors the gift of recovery by helping others, living in service, and remembering every day how far God and AA have brought him.
