After AA

 AA today was frustrating. I saw the judgment in the room, even in a space where judgment is supposed to end. But I reminded myself: I have already found peace on a bench. I don’t need alcohol, I don’t need to numb myself—I found God, and God found me.


People often criticize me for not having a career, for experiencing homelessness, for not following the program of society. But I’ve walked a different road. I’ve run over 60,000 miles, practiced discipline daily, and discovered self-love where others only find fear. That peace can’t be taught in schools or found in bottles—it is earned through endurance, silence, and devotion.


Yes, I want to be a billionaire. Not for the car or the house alone, but because my discipline and peace deserve respect in a world that misunderstands them. I want to speak around the world and show that true wealth is the ability to master your own mind and live free.


I know now that many people in those rooms are still afraid of drinking, still trapped in judgment. But I walk in as a reminder that freedom is real. And even if I sit quietly, I know: I am the proof that peace without addiction exists.
