Thank you, each and every single one of you~ Funny thing is a lot of things have humbled me today. I realized that no matter how much we may think we "have this" or how well we may be doing, we can't ever think we have it all figured out. We also can't look at others and think "get your crap together!" because many of us were there not too long ago. I've been guilty of that way of thinking lately and *I* needed that reality check.

The reason I'm saying these things is because we all know that being sober is a battle. Whether we feel that way everyday or only once in a while, it is what it is. Today was a day when I thought I would feel amazing, happy, and so proud of myself. Instead I've felt immensely sad today, as if I was grieving. I noticed I was starting to get that "well try harder!" mentality towards others, the judgment that *I* myself fear. I'm reminded today that there is always room to be kind~

Thanks again, to all of you for your well wishes~ I appreciate them today more than you know
