Thanks guys. I hadn't really thought of it as replacing bad memories with good ones but I like that idea. I also like the idea of sobriety having meaning as distinct from just being something I am supposed to do. Well I know what I mean.
So we're all now looking back and reminding ourselves where we came from. It's very upsetting for me to look back with some distance and truly see things for what they were but also exhilarating at the same time when thinking about the present and how different it is.
Thanks for being here and for reading my posts.
