Confidence - boy, was my confidence shot to hell. Three years ago I was an active alcoholic, very addicted to booze. The walls were closing in. I felt that utter failure was inevitable. I didn't even know where to start finding help...took a couple ambulance rides to finally get me on the right track. The first year of sobriety my confidence was still shaken. But hard work produced results.

I looked for what I wanted in life and took the steps to get there. Today the scenes below are part of my daily routine. My terrace view (this morning), my rooftop garden, my flowers, my weekend retreat - these are the things that I build my life around today. The support from the good folks at SR, family, and friends helped me get here. But make no mistake, I did most of the work myself. Everyone here who is even 24 hours sober deserves a pat on the back for their resolve and will to get better! We can do this folks! Let's get this weekend rolling.
