November 17th - Overcoming Loneliness - Niamh C. (Wexford, Ireland)
Join us as Niamh C. (pronounced Neeve), from Wexford, Ireland, shares her experience, strength, and hope around today's Daily Reflection, Overcoming Loneliness.
OVERCOMING LONELINESS
Almost without exception, alcoholics are tortured by loneliness. Even before our drinking got bad and people began to cut us off, nearly all of us suffered the feeling that we didn't quite belong.
— AS BILL SEES IT, p. 90
The agonies and the void that I often felt inside occur less and less frequently in my life today. I have learned to cope with solitude. It is only when I am alone and calm that I am able to communicate with God, for He cannot reach me when I am in turmoil. It is good to maintain contact with God at all times, but it is absolutely essential that, when everything seems to go wrong, I maintain that contact through prayer and meditation.
