Thanks for your comment, but what I meant by “sad” is that we don't even know and/or can no longer even recognize what serenity and inner joy is. I have found it again after living with an alcoholic for 30 years. My goal in life is to help others, especially my kids, experience and recognize serenity, even if it last for only a short period of time. Once you have had a taste of IT, it becomes a driving force (a real fight) for change that is incredible. All my best to those who are recovering.
