Great posts!
For me on the many breaks I took ranging from a day to a year in my active alcoholism I can remember thinking about drinking, this could be watching someone drinking a beer and thinking yeah I don't do that anymore all power to me or walking down the supermarket alcohol isle thinking phew glad I don't do that anymore etc etc...
Now there is nothing, no thinking back, no need to think through anything, no need to remind myself why I don't drink etc...I just don't drink it's no big deal to me or anyone else on the planet. That's a very cool place to be for a drunk IMO audits thanks. To the steps of AA, an addiction counsellor, family, friends, me and mostly due to believing now in a power in the universe greater than me!
Pretty cool place to be:-)
