The alpha the omega the high and the humility of a saint. The appreciation of life, the knowing that I can't make things worse, the new life. The ability to comphrehend and act rationally daily, no more hearing voices, no more mental institutes, no more grief and despair.
A life of no more disappointment, a life where I don't lie and don't want to lie. An end to a beginning, a newness, a place where happiness strive and survives. An ownership of my life and the ability to both effect and affect the future.
To be grand to the point of grandiose, an extra step in walk, and moment where I can accept me for who I am. A sobriety to own, love and cherish, and possibly even brag about. A opportunity to help others, change attitudes and ultimately achieve sobriety for all that want it!

I want to remember my days/evenings.
I want to have better health.
I never want to feel that next-day overwhelming gloom again.
Nor pretend I'm not hung over.
I am fed-up with drink-related injuries!
I'm fed up with creatively hiding bottles.
And indeed forgetting where that is...
I will think of non-drink-related benefits when I figure then out, mostly I wanna be normal!
