Wanting to be sober more than anything was a mindset I had to get into. In early recovery it was a matter of
just not drinking, no matter what. After I'd been sober for a while and started feeling better, I liked sobriety a lot more and wanted it for my lifestyle.
The last time I drank was at six months sober. I drank for two days and got deathly ill.
When I woke up the next morning, I knew I was done drinking. I knew it would kill me, one way or the other, if I didn't stop.
I love living sober.
My favorite part of the day is waking up feeling good.
PS, I don't know much about Camus, just know I like that quote.
