You know, I didn't think of that. But you are right. Through all of my worries, struggles, rocky moments, I haven't had the fear of drinking again.

And, you need to stop worrying. I exhausted myself with worry too, but I realized in early recovery that I had to let go. I was a super control freak and it was a horrible existence. There is very little in your life that you can control. Most of what happens is outside of your control. And, it's all happening just as it should. There is a reason for everything.
I know, I know. It's hard. Thanks for reminding me though. I am a super control freak. Very hard for me to let go. But I'm trying to not worry about the future or past, just live in today. Thanks Anna.

Ha! Yes, it is supposed to be relaxing. I'll try. I am hoping that once I'm on my way all of this worry will be for naught.
