Thank you Steely

So many have commented, and for that I’m grateful and thankful as those comments keep more going one day at a time.

Steely—you wrote this awhile back, and I come back to it often in my less than 3 months sober:

I've been butt of jokes too, Suzieq, but as soon as I got some sober time up things changed. I gained the power to never let them get away with it again.

Think too that when I was drinking I somehow deserved it. No longer will that be.

Say something when others do this to you Suzieq, you are deserving of the best. The fact that you posted your ponderings is proof of that. Proof of a good person. ❤️

Joke's over, Suzieq. Remind them of "people who live in glass houses".
Thank you so much for this—I refer back to it, and it keeps me going! ❤️

Yes, it's about learning self-respect, which many of us beginning recovery are lacking.

Nooo! Surrendered is the best!

Thank you both.

It is about self-respect Suzie. And we're taking it back, look out, here we come! Hell or high water.

We chop wood and carry water, together.

No hole in OUR bucket.
