		<description><![CDATA[Â  More and more Iâ€™m beginning to think that if one gets sober and stays sober it is entirely by happenstance; that no amount of effort, no profound experience, no treatment program, no great desire, noÂ necessity, has the power to get and keep any of us sober. And I certainly donâ€™t have the power to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There are all kinds of things that I think automatically, answers I give without consideration, judgements I enter without a fair trial. Moving beyond my knee-jerk psychic construct, at least with regard to drugs and alcohol, and with regard to many of my ideas about myself, has been an absolute necessity in getting and staying [...]]]></description>

The good news is that it was an intensely uncomfortable feeling. [...]]]></description>
