It is different living with sobriety being a constant. It has become a precious possession. One I'm very protective of.
It has become such a source of pride to me. I'm not the one saying stupid, mean, drunken things to people who mean something to me. I just assume I will now wake up and face the day clear headed.
I like who I have become in sobriety. It makes those moments of thinking a drink would be okay....an eye opening reminder of exactly how precious sobriety is.
