The best thing I never wanted to do

You don't get a college degree by not going to college.

You don't get laid by never asking them out.

You don't make money by never getting a job.

And

You don't stay sober by never trying to quit.

For me, staying sober is an activity.

Just as much as going to college, making a date, or getting a job.

What I get out of sobriety depends on what I put into it.

Sobriety is now part of my routine , as i walk the path of my day i can see the old turnings and oppertunities i'd have went down . Being active about these decisions rather than being the passive observer of live, a voyer of my own experience seems to be where the ballance point of the issue resides for me . These days i always make the call , i always choose .

Bestwishes, M
