[QUOTEmy sponsor always says sober birthdays makes you think about a drink.][/QUOTE]
My sponsor said that a few times....when a birthday was coming up, on occasions the thought of a drink would enter my mind..near birthdays, he would warn me of thinking about the week or month ahead rather than staying in the moment, in the now... i still get into a strange reflective mood near or on birthdays....not drinking thoughts but not entirely comfortable...never really put my finger on exactly why but it passes quickly.
