In about half an hour..........

I have 3 years alcohol free!

3 whole years everybody!

I just want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart to all my friends and family here at SR.

I come here lots of times a day. I get homesick if I don't visit often.
Even when I am in Europe - Big thats just for you!

I'm still coming to terms with things, but I think I am so much better than I was a few years ago!! I don't just mean better as in not being a drunk either!

I mean better in that I am a nicer person to be with (I hope!), I am more grateful. I am more humble. I am more tolerant of others and less quick to judge. I worry less and enjoy my life so much more. I am a better friend, daughter, sister and mum. I love more and I give more. I go to bed happy at night.

I have been visiting here for a number of years.
I have old friends here. I have newer friends here.
You are all so important to me.

I have many friends here who I have no idea on earth what they look like or even sound like to talk to. BUT...I know without a doubt that they have very, very big hearts. The BIGGEST hearts. I know this from the advice, the support, the words and the love they have offered me over the years.

There is one person here who is super special to me. He will always be very special.
That's my beloved Dee.
I just want you to know that I love you very much Dee and I hope you are always here Dee.
What you do here is nothing short of amazing.

Love to you all xxxx

Congratulations, Sasha!

Yours were some of the first posts I recall from my early days on SR. You've always shared with poignancy and a humanity that make you such a valued fellow journeyer on this road.

I'm very happy for you.

Sasha…I ALWAYS love to read your posts! They are so filled with insight, you are so caring and who you are as a person really comes through in your writing. I appreciate your honesty about the fact that it isn't always easy. And I love your sense of humor! That little doll on your avatar always lets me know that there is something special to be read!

Congratulations on your huge accomplishment of three years!
