Like most people who decide to get sober, I was brought to Alcoholics Anonymous. While AA certainly works for others, its core propositions felt irreconcilable with my own experiences. I couldn't, for example, rectify the assertion that "alcoholism is a disease" with the facts of my own life.
The idea that by simply attending an AA meeting, without any consultation, one is expected to take on a blanket diagnosis of "diseased addict" was to me, at best, patronizing. At worst, irresponsible. Irresponsible because it doesn't encourage people to turn toward and heal the actual underlying causes of their abuse of substances.
I drank for thirteen years for REALLY good reasons. Among them were unprocessed grief, parental abandonment, isolation, violent trauma, anxiety and panic, social oppression, a general lack of safety, deep existential discord, and a tremendous diet and lifestyle imbalance. None of which constitute a disease, and all of which manifest as profound internal, mental, emotional and physical discomfort, which I sought to escape by taking external substances.
It is only through one's own efforts to turn toward life on its own terms and to develop a wiser relationship to what's there through mindfulness and compassion that make freedom from addictive patterns possible. My sobriety has been sustained by facing life, processing grief, healing family relationships, accepting radically the fact of social oppression, working with my abandonment conditioning, ~ Noah Levine

I mean, I had my turtle Deckard, but his lifestyle consisted of sunbathing, eating goldfish, and - somehow I just knew this - silently judging me while I masturbated. I'd taken to covering his tank with a thin blanket, but still…he knew. ~ Jeremy Robert Johnson

No way of life so entrenched will ever 'wither away' - it must be helped, with dynamite, if need be. ~ Joyce Carol Oates

Not everyone understand everything. ~ Dee Dee Artner

For a while, the gay thing seemed like such a big deal. But now, I don't think it is. It's just a comedy-drama about people who live in the United States. It's a slice-of-life. I play a character-that's it. But I was well aware of the gay lifestyle before the show. I've been hit on in a really strong way by gay men who've tried to convert me, and a lot of my heroes are gay. William Burroughs, Lou Reed. Well, I guess Lou Reed is bi. The point is, it's 2002, gay life is no longer that shocking. ~ Gale Harold

According to one Harvard study, we spend nearly 50 percent of our waking time thinking about something other than what we're really supposed to be doing. And perhaps that's the main reason the universe is not helping you in achieving what you want because you yourself are not clear & based on your deliriums, wildness & inattentions it is simply not clear what you want. How the hell anyone for that matter would come to know what you want unless you consistently, relentlessly work towards it. Let you remind yourself that your reality exists only in your mind & nowhere else. It is you who tell to universe what is important to you, what you believe, what you fear & what you are focused on. If you are focused, committed, hopeful & positive, you are presented with more relevant solutions instead of problems, more good news instead of bad news & more good people instead of negative people. Otherwise your ambiguousness will surely hold you from reaching the next levels of fulfillment, happiness & success. Let you soon create habits, lifestyle, practices that signal to yourself, your world & obviously to universe that you are in distraction-free mode & allow the universe to respond to your momentum with more & bless you far more abundantly than all you want & deserve. Stay Focused, Wholehearted & Work Hard! ~ Rajesh Goyal

When I think of some of the great renewals in the church I think of folks like St. Francis and Clare of Assisi who, through their lifestyle, were challenging the patterns of materialism and militarism and it affected the Christianity of their age. ~ Shane Claiborne

At the end of the day, what all people outright want from their life? To make their dreams come true, so as to escape from the mundane world. However, reality often prevents them from that. Others accept that fate, lacking the courage to follow their dreams or the belief that they will make it. They don't want to risk what they have built to walk on an undiscovered path that is uncertain where will lead. So, they stay in safe grounds. ~ Maria Karvouni

The introduction into the supernatural lifestyle that the Lord wants for all who follow Him begins with the ability to hear the voice of God. ~ Brian Nickens

My face, body, lifestyle, I chose every aspect of myself with my own will. I don´t want to be ordered around by anyone anymore, and I have no need for a past. I´ve got dreams to fulfill, money to earn, love to find and success do achieve. They may be foolishly simplistic desire for some, but to me, working towards them bit by bit is how I build my confidence. ~ Inio Asano

I don't know if it's possible to live the rock 'n roll lifestyle and still be romantic. ~ Adam Levine

For me, one of the most disturbing elements of the right wing's political agenda is that it believes that there is one correct spiritual and moral path for all people to follow. The danger inherent in this is its explicit refusal to accept anyone who happens to lead a different lifestyle, and the condemnation of those who differ. ~ Barbra Streisand

We tend to look at sin according to the world's moral standards. We think that lying is wrong because it betrays trust, that stealing is wrong because it destroys society. Homosexual adoption is said to be wrong by many people because children need a mother and a father. If the "morality" of something is based on what works, then it is fine for spouses to lie to each other as long as they find a way to have a relationship that works. Or stealing is morally okay as long as no one notices that he has been ripped off. Or if children raised by homosexuals are proven to be stable and happy, then the lifestyle of homosexuality becomes acceptable. But this perspective is a mistaken one. Rather, sin is wrong for one reason only: God says it's wrong. ~ Ray Comfort

Institutionalized:
Ghetto stars pimped so hard for so long
they'll starve to pimp themselves behind psychic bars. ~ T.F. Hodge

It's my firm conclusion that human meaning comes from humans, not from a supernatural source. After we die, our hopes for an afterlife reside in the social networks that we influenced while we were alive. If we influence people in a positive way
even if our social web is only as big as our nuclear family
others will want to emulate us and pass on our ideas, manners, and lifestyle to future generations. This is more than enough motivation for me to do good things in my life and teach my children to do the same. ~ Greg Graffin

If your life is worth thinking about,it is worth writing about. ~ Robin S. Sharma

The problem with nutrient-by-nutrient nutrition science is that it takes the nutrient out the context of the food, the food out of the context of the diet, and the diet out of the context of the lifestyle. ~ Marion Nestle

I made some studies, and reality is the leading cause of stress amongst those in touch with it. I can take it in small doses, but as a lifestyle, I found it too confining. It was just too needful; it expected me to be there for it all the time, and with all I have to do
I had to let something go. ~ Jane Wagner

The greatest joy is my lifestyle, where me and my husband and our kids who go to internet school so they have the freedom to travel with me are able to do what we want, when we want, where we want. ~ Tracy Repchuk
