Thank god for 7 days without a drink. There is hope for me as long as I don't pick up that first sip.
This is my friends signature and it brings me hope. Thank you Ladyblue0527
Sometimes easier said than done, but the happiest and most content I am in sobriety is when I'm fully accepting of the fact that there is no circumstance under which I can drink.

Asixstringnut, I'm doing virtual cartwheels right now over your post. Real joy, it feels good doesn't it? When you just accept it and give up the fight of trying to drink it frees up the necessary room to feel what you did tonight. It's pure, simple, and beautiful.
