Sleep well
HAHA. Well thank you. But you're wrong about something. And that is this: All we've got is today. It truly is one day at a time, no more, no less.
I saw just how valuable staying sober is tonight. I was nodding off in the library on a couch (exhausted from a long day at work and due to my allergies) when I was startled by a drunk guy falling on his face.
I felt terrible for the guy. And all I could think in my head was this: "I never want anyone to ever have to see me in that sorta' shape again for the rest of my life."
I don't want people to feel for me, the way I felt for that guy. (And he was a complete stranger. Yet I still felt sympathy for him, because I've been in that boat.)
