This sure hit me hard. Big lump in my throat many times listening. I'm 63 and finally realizing I'm not as strong as I think I am. I need to join the alanon family. Thanks for sharing
My boyfriend relapsed last night after 4 years of being clean. I’ve never attended an alanon meeting but something told me to read on it today for the first time and search on RUclips for speakers. I kept fast forwarding and switching through videos thinking do I really want to waste an hour of my time after the night I had after the day I had listening to this and I landed on this one. I’ve cried laughed and felt understood by someone who I can’t see, couldn’t shake their hand and that, it was a moment.
Burst into tears at the end. feeling enough and a good person in the eyes of my father has been so hard, 4years sober and I still don't feel enough. Thanks for the share
Thank you so very much, Kerri K!! Your transparency is the most beautiful thing I've heard in a very long time....God loves you and adores you more than you will ever comprehend!! Love to you!!
Excellent, honest, helpful. Kerri thank you for your COURAGE and BRAVERY. WE need more LGBT+ positive program speakers. This really spoke to me on so many levels and I am grateful.
Keri, your story moved me more than any other story I have ever listened to in my entire life, and I have listened to many. You have been through some difficult times that's for sure. But you came out an angel. You hit feelings I never knew I had. Your heart is pure Keri, I will never forget your life lessons. You have a gift for explaining your hardships, and how you gained strength through them. The story about your Dad just ripped my heart out. How painful his words must have hurt you. But you did not give up on him because you know he truly loves you. The story as to how you met the love of your life was beautiful. You deserve one another. Thank you for who you are, thank you for opening up a memory of my own Dad I had buried deep in the bowels of my soul. I wish I had listened to you in my twenty's. I would have lived a better life. God Bless you, all my love...Andi
Thank you soooo very much for sharing your story❤️. I’m not in a good place in my life right now, but I won’t give up! One second at a time is how I’m surviving atm, but it’s something🙃
I just want to thank Kerri, wherever she is, for sharing. I hope one day she reads this, so she can know how much her story moved me. I was *meant* to hear her story today. Thank you, Kerri
Wow 😇 what an amazing story. I cried so many times. She spoke to my heart! God was responsible for me hearing that today! I would love to hear more from her.
Thank you for posting this. Kerri's talks, which unfortunately I've never had the privilege to hear in person, have given me a lot of comfort during some pretty hard times.
I’m new to the program (about 2months in), & I’ve never heard anyone say so many of the things I feel. I’ve never been able to let people in, never felt like it was ok for me to feel something if it would make someone else uncomfortable or unhappy. I’m about to give up my home & the one person I thought I could count on in my life, because I’ve realized that I cannot grow or get healthy with them in my life. Thank you for this share. It gave me so much hope.
I just stopped the tape where you were saying you spoke on going to the 21 day program.....it dawned on me WHY alot of alcoholics relapse , I think there are probaly quite a few who didn't get that safe space you speak of to unburden their hearts And even if they're doing ALOT on their own and are being diligent and sincere.....that component of unloading and being in a protective environment for 21 days is paramount...THE key element among it all for not all, but many.
Kerri, my dad and I have a strained relationship. I really identified in when you had the reunion with your dad. I totally get it. To be loved and adored by my Heavenly Father and knowing that while sitting with my biological dad is the best feeling in the world. I am good enough and holy enough for my HP. Thank you.
Thank you for putting these upI cant get to the meeting much so Im greatful as I need peace its draining me being with sick aa person hes argumentative i have learned not to argew i let him do his thing. I tried to leave but it went wrong had to move back. I didnt want to but ran out of money. I need to give it a go and be well so thank you it begins with me.
Kerri K. really speaks to my heart. I lost count of how many ways my story is a lot like hers. If you know Kerri please tell her thank you for sharing her message. I wish I could contact her and let her know how much this message means to me.
This is my old sponsor! She's wonderful. Love you Kerri ❤️
