Almost 2 years
In a couple week's I'll have 2 years sober. Incredible. Feel amazing. But it's always there lurking. I passed up a trip to NYC recently partially because NYC was a place that I did a huge amount of drinking and drugging back in the day, and the thought of waking around by myself with all those bars and restuarants just lurking...well, frankly, I don't trust myself enough yet. Call it my higher power but something bigger then me is saying now is not the time .
So I'm grateful for my sobriety, for every day that I have sober, so that I'm able to enjoy life. All it's little moments, all it's little nuances. So much of life passed me by for so long. Now I'm able to finally take it all in.
