Boredom

 

"Nothing is interesting if you are not interested." Helen MacInnes

There is a distinction between "dry" and "sober." Sober alcoholics choose not to drink because they have accepted their alcoholism. Dry alcoholics are not drinking but are invariably angry and resentful and do not express these feelings.Their abstinence is not exciting because they are not interested in it; they are bored. They really want to drink. They have stopped drinking for reasons that do not include acceptance of the disease; thus, they are still victims of it. Sobriety, by contrast, is an adventure into self. It greets the new day with enthusiasm and energy. Sobriety is the spiritual discovery of God in my life. - Leo Booth

Let me always remember that my interests in life reflect my interest in You.
