Matt is another friend from Jerry's meditation meeting, our sobriety dates are on top of one another so I have had the pleasure of witnessing his journey from a broken alcoholic/addict, to a super successful real estate agent. Matt is one more piece of solid proof that if you take/do/work these steps, and then practice these principles in your daily life - your possibilities are limitless.
Matt had all he needed growing up, intelligence, opportunity, and talent; but that does not matter one iota when it comes to the disease of spiritual sickness - it will take you down and dissolve everything good in your life. Listen as Matt describes his journey, "how low" low can go, and how we promise ourselves we will do better next time, over and over again. And then how consequences force your hand, finally backed into a corner with no escape - and surrender to this process, and how great life can be with a twelve step foundation.
Enjoy - Thank you for allowing me to participate in my recovery in this manner today! Peace Out!
