"Because I'm sober I can".....
Topic of the meeting I went to this evening. I shared and I usually don't
Because I'm sober I can wake up on time for work and actually work. I can start cleaning up my drunken mess I created for myself and my family.

Because I'm sober I can be a good friend, daughter and sister. Rather than making everyone worry all the time and then throwing it back in their face.
Because I'm sober I can hold down a job, volunteer and go back into study to build a better future for myself. Rather than being disappointed to find that I've survived the night.

Now I'm sober I can;
Take part in an exercise class without sweating buckets more than anybody else.
Communicate effectively any time of day.
Drive anytime.
Enjoy proper sleep.
Keep up with housework.
More seriously, begin to take a sober look at my life and whilst scared of the changes needed, realise that I am capable of doing something about some of it.
Great thread, thank you.

My favorite things about being sober:
I can write legibly without my hands shaking.
I can afford brand-name food items in the grocery store.
I can look people straight in the eye without worry over my appearance.
It's little things that are making me the happiest right now...

Be available in an emergency.
I got sober when my kids were in high school and I was glad I was sober so that I could drive somewhere to pick them up if something happened.
The guilt of not being able to pick up my daughter, because I'm too drunk to drive, and she is in a uncomfortable situation would have been overwhelming.

Brilliant thread - think I'm gonna post here every day.
Because I am sober I can:
- start rebuilding my self-esteem
- give my students the lessons they deserve
- be fully present with people

Recently back on the wagon but more determined than ever. I can...
Help out my elderly neighbors (do there yard work)
Play with my kids. Not passifying play. But real play like "war" and tea parties.
Be productive at work, like i am paid to be

Because I'm sober
I woke up well rested and went cheerfully into work. On a Monday!
I could be relied upon to not only take my son to his game, but pick up another player and parent too.
I have lost weight and exercise means something.
I don't worry I smell like a bar. I can talk more openly.
I can sit here outside at night, enjoy the quiet, reflect, and just be.
