Sobriety
Sobriety is nothing like I thought it would be.
At first it was one big emotional roller coaster, full of sharp highs and deep lows.
My emotions were new, untested, and I wasn't entirely certain I wanted
to deal with them.
I cried when I should have been laughing.
I laughed when I should have cried.
Events I thought were the end of the world turned out to be gifts.
Slowly things began to even out.
As I began to take the steps of recovery, my role in the pitiful condition of my life became clear.
- Alcoholics Anonymous, p. 316
I had to get sober to be amazed.
B E S T = Been Enjoying Sobriety Today?
We cannot change the directions of the wind, but we can adjust our sails.
Have a beautiful day unless you plan otherwise.
