With as much as I want to drink lately (cravings have been insane) I think giving myself a reward for 6 months of sobriety is a good motivator.

Congratulations on three months. Well done! Six months was a good milestone for me. After that I started to have long periods of sanity.
"The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones that never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and everybody goes “Awww!” "
I love the quote, even though Jack could be the Patron Saint of Hopeless Alcoholics. I started reading Kerouac thirty years ago. He died a sad death in my home town of St. Petersburg Florida. I hadn't thought about those words in a long time.
Thanks for starting my Sunday off right. I may have to go dig around for my copy of Dharma Bums...

Or at least I understood the madness that was him towards the end of his life. He helped take me to the edge.
And then, having seen how bad it could be, I decided and chose life.
Every day is a struggle, but at least it's a sober one.
