It's the simple things


I was just listening to some music and randomly clicked on a a song and heres what came up,


Kenny Chesney - Simple Things

No I ain't had nothing to drink
I knew thats probably what you'd think
If I dropped by this time of night
Remember way back when
I promised you I'd drop in
At one of those meetings down at the Y

Well, they started talkin bout steps you take
Mistakes you make
The hearts you break
And the price you pay
I almost walked away

You could hear a pin drop
When this old man
Stood up and said I'm gonna' say it again
Like I do every week
For those who don't know me

It's the simple things in life
Like the kids at home and a loving wife
That you miss the most, when you lose control
And everything you love starts to disappear
The devil takes your hand and says no fear
Have another shot, just one more beer
Yah, I've been there, that's why I'm here

This ole boy stood up in the aisle
Said he'd been living a life of denial
And he cried as he talked about wasted years
I couldn't believe what I heard
It was my life word for word
And all of the sudden it was clear

It's the simple things in life
Like the kids at home and a loving wife
That you miss the most, when you lose control
And everything you love starts to disappear
The devil takes your hand and says no fear
Have another shot, just one more beer
Yah, I've been there, that's why I'm here

I know for us it may be too late
But it would mean the world to me
If you were there when I stand to say
It's the simple things in life
Like the kids at home and a loving wife
That you miss the most, when you lose control
And everything you love starts to disappear
The devil takes your hand and says no fear
Have another shot, just one more beer
Yah, I've been there, that's why I'm here
Oh, I've been there, that's why I'm here




YOu know my life has been so out of control for so long, my life has been in the hands of the devil all these years , that I have no wife, I have no kids I drifted along lost for so longI couldn't keep anything together all I had was drugs and alcohol , thats all I counted on.

And i tried over and over and over again and just couldn't get IT.

Then I made things simple, One day at a time, easy does it, I stopped regretting things and living in fear and i started looking foreward instead of behind me, I still do it sometimes but I grab myself and pull my haed back around and face whats in front of me, life today.

The simple things, it means the world to me you all being here , giving me support this is saving me, giving me strength not to go back to the life I had.

Thankyou.

Today and forward like you say Vini is liberation.
I used to carry around too much.
I don't have to do that anymore.
A miracle is happening in my life today and it is thanks to God and NA/AA.
