Least - thank you so much for this special thread! I probably say it every year, but it still seems surreal to me that I've actually done this. When I first came to SR I wasn't sure what I would find - or what I was looking for. The first people who responded to my timid little posts were warm and welcoming. If I'd been met with harshness, I'd have left & never returned. I was hypersensitive and terribly sick. I was immediately made to feel at home, even though I wasn't ready to quit right away. Reading everyone's stories and advice helped me make up my mind that I could actually do this.
From the wise, long term sober people to the new members just trying to figure it all out - everyone has had an impact on me. We're an eclectic group. We hold each other up, we empathize with each other like no one else can. I hold you all in the highest regard - and I'm so proud of you. I send out my love - and my deepest appreciation.
There goes the mascara.
