“One day at a time: this is enough. Do not look back and grieve over the past for it is gone; and do not be troubled about the future, for it has not yet come. Live in the present, and make it so beautiful it will be worth remembering.” - Anonymous

One month now since I had a hangover so bad that I checked into a hotel because I couldn't face my flatmate in that condition. Dreadful.
This last month has not been hard, mainly because this time I have stuck closer to the boards, and worked to keep my sobriety solid each and every day - reading sobriety books, watching Youtube videos, listening to Annie Grace's brilliant Naked Mind podcasts. So things are feeling good, and that's exactly why I'm now gonna work to lock my sobriety down even more now, as I know that the further I get from the last time I drank, the less I remember the full horror of what alcohol has been to me.
I'm rambling a bit, but just now, listening to Spotify, a song came on - Something in the Air by Thunderclap Newman. It almost made me tear up, as it was a song I used to love back when I was 16-17. It took me right back to that time when I was just goofy and happy, when alcohol wasn't part of my life. What's been nice over the past week or so, is getting little glimmers of that young pre-alcohol me. It's like he's actually always been there, but was just drowned out by all that booze and drugs. The prospect of reconnecting with that earlier part of myself is one of my biggest motivations in sobriety.
Anyway, I'm now gonna order myself a DVD box set as a 1 month reward, then it's off to work ;-)
Love to all. Thanks for the stellar support.
Congrats to the wonderful milestoners!
And beaming strength to anyone having a less than brilliant time.
thanks
