Hello
Bizarre or funny things that really have happened!
As A member of a group of admitted alcoholics, I am dedicated to helping others achieve sobriety. One night, we got a call from the landlady of a transients' hotel. Would someone come talk to a man lying drunk in one of the rooms? Two of us went. When we reached the hotel, we were led to a squalid little room where a grizzled oldster lay on the bed in a stupor. My partner patiently talked to the semiconscious form on the bed. He explained that he had once been a hopeless drunk — but that by turning his life and will over to a Higher Power, he had gained both sobriety and serenity. "I'm leaving my card," my partner said. "I'd like you to attend a meeting at this address." At our next meeting, a shaky but sober young man came up to us. "Thank you for coming to the hotel that night," he said. "You saved my life." We stared in astonishment. "That old man on the bed wasn't you," my partner said. "That's right," the young man said, holding out the card we had left. "But I heard every word you said. I was under the bed."
