At least when we were drunk we could kind of, sort of, ignore the fact that the bomb had gone off and that we were sitting in the debris, right? Being sober, the reality of that situation can seem pretty stark at first.

But, over the coming days, you will develop the strength and the motivation to start to clean up some of the debris. That is when the benefits of sobriety will really start to be revealed.

Stay vigilant about your sobriety. Even though you currently have no desire to drink, that urge can hit you suddenly, and like a sledgehammer.

Good luck. I am glad you are here with us.
