"Miracles" 









The Blog City Prompt Forum prompt for February 26, 2017 is "Wishes. Miracles. Prayers. Positive vibes. Do you believe in any of these? Do you feel they have an impact in any way? What's your go-to coping mechanism in times of crisis, and why?"

I believe in miracles because I am one. I am celebrating 8 years of recovery after spending 30 years of my life in active addiction. Then one night I was sitting on the side of my bed attempting suicide. After 3 misfires with my gun I tossed it aside and picked up the phone. I dialed zero for the operator being too drunk to dial 911. The operator listened to me for afew minutes and said "Sir I'm an alcoholic who hasn't had a drink in 15 years. I can tell you what I did."

My life changed at that point. So yes I believe in all thew above.
