Drinking run alongside any interest or hobby i have or had.
if drinking couldn't happen then it ceased to be of interest or became boring and futile.
sobriety has rekindled alot of those interests...the activity has become the driving force rather than how much drinking i can get done.
fishing and drinking went together like bread and butter.......
only in sobriety did i realize how little was about fishing and how much was about getting drunk in the middle of nowhere.. in peace.
Now that peace is something i chase without the help of alcohol.....spending time fishing in beautiful surroundings......just me...god......and his creations.
fishing without booze!!........i couldn't comprehend that.
these days i cant imagine spoiling something so peaceful by "rounding of the edges".....with something that only destroys that perception.
