I shall not grow old,
into decrepit loneliness; nor
the thousand
plagues upon the way.

I shall not become
the bed-ridden ghost; of
hopes and wishes, now
no more than sediment.

Boredom will not be
given the chance to tick
my life from between the seconds:
I would rather die.

Because I know what I want
I shall not become a puppeteer;

Read more… 265 more words

And Socrates lives on....

About FFCC

Freedom From the Chemical Carousel (FFCC) is a new group forming in the Boise, Idaho area for alcoholics and by alcoholics. This not an AA group and there is no discussion of religion/prayers at any time during the group. The groups premise is based on current medical knowledge available and shared with the group to give the suffering alcoholic hope. We also don't keep milestones as we feel that the desire to quit is more important than the length of time a person has been sober because we all know that relapse is so very hard to prevent and when you have milestones held over your head it may make you feel guilty if you falter causing you to fall away from your attempt at sobriety. The only requirement is a desire to get off the sick chemical carousel. There are no fees, no expectations, nothing to buy. All the information is free and is given freely in the hope that what they have learned can help another alcoholic.
