For me the pink cloud was the fact a desire to drink was gone and so were the problems directly related to drinking. I`ve never forgotten where I was when I entered the rooms of AA and I have always been appreciative of my sobriety.
Life has its share of ups/downs but no matter how rough life gets I can never fool myself into thinking I drink will help. But am I trudging the road of happy destiny?
Don`t really know about that but my life is moving forward in the right direction.
Imo, I think it's important to remember that what constitutes a "pink cloud" varies depending on the individual.
