hello all
C2- I don't physically reward myself, but I do the mental good job, with the associated fist bump and applause to me, when I walk out of the store without stopping at the wine aisle. What Gilmer said about how it feels good to be proud of yourself is dead on. I became sober and am staying sober for me, and its not easy and its an accomplishment every day that I stay on this path I have chosen. I think we as humans go the self depreciation route, so that we do not sound prideful or vain when we accomplish something, waiting and hoping someone will notice without us blowing our own horn so to speak.
That being said, no wine for this girl today!
