Are You Kidding Me?

When I was in my second year of AA, I had not had a drink for two years, but I couldn’t claim I was actually sober. I was a very sick puppy and still sharing about how horrid my ex was. Two oldtimers, Lorne and Walter, cornered me after a meeting and suggested that I pray for my ex for two weeks. Pray for his health, happiness and prosperity? Are you kidding? No way in hell was I going to do that. Well, they said it was up to me. If I really wanted to keep feeling awful, so be it.
