I am thinking..and maybe this comes depending on what age you are..but when I look back -let's go back to high school. They were the CLOSEST people in my life. I never had a vast number of friends..but the ones I do have are near and dear to me. Point is..everyone takes a different path thru life. I don't even know (except for one) what everyone is doing or who they are any more. People come ..People go all thru life. Goes with relationships of every kind. The ones that really matter..they either stick thru it no matter what..or they come around eventually. I think that when I decided to take the path of sobriety..nothing else mattered. I feel so good and that should benefit anyone around me. That is all I know..and with me..I doubt anyone is WTF SHOCKED that I was drinking and just maybe had a bit of a problem!!!!!
