"Alcohol is not playing games with you. It is not out just to take your money, make you sing or dance better. It's out to take your life. If you don't end it, alcohol WILL eventually kill you, or worse yet, cause you to kill someone else." -James Evers

After a long and difficult struggle with alcohol and gambling addiction, James Evers shares the key elements that helped him find the courage to climb out of his abyss and find his way back to the world of the living. He reflects on the cause and effect theory and how he used it to make the necessary changes to his life. In making these changes, James found another key to opening doors to his sobriety. This key is explained in this book as "living in the moment," and James shows how this key unlocked the door to the present, how it keeps the past on the other side of the door, only to be opened to remember the good times or to review past mistakes and the lessons learned from them. This key also opened the door to hopes and dreams for the future.

It is James' wish that anyone who is suffering from the horrors of addiction will find some answers in this book and use his information to help find a way back to a good life. By helping others, his cycle will be fulfilled."Anyone who is suffering from the horrors of addiction will find some answers in this book.
