Peaceful Warrior

I refuse to be alcohol’s victim.
I refuse to let myself feel like a victim in life’s struggles.
Life is often unfair, unkind and scary.
I will not let that make me a victim though.
I chose to see it all as part of the adventure.
I chose to see it all as part of the challenge.
And the reward is my self-respect.
And the reward is surprise at my strength.
And the reward is confidence in my growing abilities.
I have spent a lot of my life feeling like a victim.
I have spent a lot of my life being scared of, or anticipating being a victim.
I have spent a lot of my life actively being a victim of alcohol too.
I get the feeling that the more of a victim I’ve felt,
the more of a victim I’ve become.
No more.
I don’t want to be that anymore.
I see it is a state of mind which I chose.
Victim or peaceful warrior.
Choosing peaceful warrior today.
