There’s a massive difference in making some one else comfortable in their last days and one of us SR peeps.

Maybe I’m fooling myself, but I can’t see I’ll be able to turn my back on the authentic life I’ve built as a sober person.

I found my true life and true self again.

To me there’s no circumstance that releases me from my bond of never again, not even imminent death.

To be honest drinking’s just not enticing to me anymore. I couldn’t waste those last days drinking like I used to, because I know I would drink like I used to if I started again.

Just had to add the balance Hodd. Sorry for the diversion KMT.
