Day 6. One nice thing is that time is flying this second time around.
Last time I did this each day felt so slow. A week felt like a month. Reaching day 7 was a very long ride.
This time, its moving swiftly.
My understanding of sobriety and sober life is still in its early stages, but I do feel this time around to have a slighter more in-depth understanding of what it means.
My understanding this time around is slightly more REALISTIC.
I am finally understanding, for example, how HARD this path can be. I have to constantly remind myself, however, that drinking life is still HARDER! Drinking the way I was is the definition of a truly HARD life.
So yes, this sober life is not going to be a bed of roses, and there will be times when it feels impossible to stay sober through my anxiety and stress. But that feeling will always be a lie.
I pray that I remember this ALWAYS.
Thanks.
