Thank you for the caring letter Sherri, a nice reminder for me it is. Prayer is
the key and for those that do not belive in a god if nothing else Prayer feeds
the subconcious. Either way I'm not sure how it works but I do know that it
does and thats all that matters.

GAMBLERS ANONYMOUS TEACHES US THAT WE ARE EMOTIONALLY AND MENTALLY
DIFFERENT FROM FROM OUR FELLOWS.WE ARE REMINDED THAT THE GREAT
OBSESSION OF EVERY COMPUSIVE GAMBLER IS TO PROVE THAT
SOMEHOW,SOMEDAY,WE WILL BE ABLE TO CONTROL OUR GAMBLING.THE
PERSISTANCE OF THIS ILLUSION IS ASTONISHING AND MANY PURSUE IT INTO
THE GATES OF PRISON,INSANITY,OR DEATH.

HAVE I CONCEDED TO MY INNER SELF THAT ONE BET IS TOO MANY,AND A
THOUSAND NOT ENOUGH?



TODAY I PRAY:

MAY I HAVE NO ILLUSION ABOUT SOMEDAY BECOMING A CONTROLLED GAMBLER
AFTER BEING AN OBSESSIVE ONE .MAY I MUFFLE ANY SMALL VOICE OF
DESTRUCTIVE PRIDE WHICH LIES TO ME ,TELLING ME THAT I CAN NOW GO BACK
TO MY FORMER ADDICTION AND CONTROL IT.THIS IS A PROGRAM OF NO
RETURN,AND I THANK GOD FOR IT.

TODAY I WILL REMEMBER:
MY GOAL MUST BE LIFELONG ABSTINENCE-A DAY AT A TIME.
