The Eye Opener
Sunday, Dec. 16, 2012
Every alcoholic has at one time or another had such a load of troubles that there was surely no prospect of his ever being happy again.
On the other hand, there were moments of ecstasy that were so great that our lives seemed completely filled and no cloud could ever possibly enter our lives again.
Both conditions existed only a brief while, until another mood appeared. Both, to a great extent, are products of our state of mind. Unhappiness can be guarded against and happiness can be cultivated.
