A Prayer Different From All Others
An Adult Child of Alcoholics. A prayer.

Please God, open my heart now.

God, I am grateful to You for the successful opening of my own heart and mind for life experiences free from the past of an adult child of alcoholics.
I forgive my dad the whole evil, which he did to me as an alcoholic.
Please God, now free me from the feeling of hopelessness connected to the fact, that as a child of an alcoholic I couldn’t deal with growing life problems, with my karma.
I have forgiven myself that while living in a family with alcohol problems, I lived in an emotional void, and with a constant hunger for unfulfilled love.
I have forgiven myself, that as a child of an alcoholic in the past I thought I could not rely on anyone.
I have forgiven myself, that as a child of an alcoholic in the past I expressed hate and scorn for drunk and wasted people.

I have forgiven myself, that as a child of an alcoholic in the past I criticised myself in a merciless way.
I have forgiven myself, that as a child of an alcoholic in the past I was totally irresponsible.
I have forgiven myself, that as a child of an alcoholic in the past I felt guilty for feeling any sort of personal needs.
I have forgiven myself, that as a child of an alcoholic in the past I felt guilt that I existed.
