Day 3 Sober
Day 3 Sober
I actually remember a dream I had last night! The one benefit of sobriety I always forget is the quality of sleep is so much better.
This time coming off was worse - I just can't sustain 10 to 12 beers in a 6 hour period any longer (and get up and go to work the next morning).
I am a very refined drinker - I don't drink and drive, never miss work, go to all my kids functions, it's my thing. It has become my personality.
No longer. I hate the way I feel, I'm getting fat, I zone out on my wife, she's might as well be alone.
I have no idea what tomorrow brings....except sobriety, and I have to say, I feel very proud right now.
One of the songs I love to listen to, not only because of the lyrics, but the passion of the song is "Walk" by the Foo Fighters;
A million miles away
Your signal in the distance
To whom it may concern
I think I lost my way
Getting good at starting over
Every time that I return
I'm learning to walk again
I believe I've waited long enough
Where do I begin?
I'm learning to talk again
Can't you see I've waited long enough
Where do I begin?
Do you remember the days
We built these paper mountains
And sat and watched them burn
I think I found my place
Can't you feel it growing stronger
Little conquerors
I'm learning to walk again
I believe I've waited long enough
Where do I begin?
I'm learning to talk again
I believe I've waited long enough
Where do I begin?
Now
For the very first time
Don't you pay no mind
Set me free again
To keep alive a moment at a time
But still inside a whisper to a riot
To sacrifice but knowing to survive
The first to climb another state of mind
I'm on my knees, I'm praying for a sign
Forever, whenever
I never wanna die
I never wanna die
I never wanna die
I'm on my knees
I never wanna die
I'm dancing on my grave
I'm running through the fire
Forever, whenever
I never wanna die
I never wanna leave
I never say goodbye
Forever, whenever, forever, whenever
