We become a different person when we decide to quit drinking and start caring for ourselves. We can't expect everyone to take the time to understand that. There are many people who I haven't seen in years that probably think I'm now like I was. Its okay though because we can't define ourselves based on what others think of us. That may have been true back then, but not now
. Even if you see them and they choose to not take the time, or believe, that we have changed.. that's up to them. We have to let and go and move on or be shackled by the past. We quit drinking and now live unchained
