As someone who works in healthcare, and drank almost every night a pint of Smirnoff raspberry vodka, I am proud of myself to say that I am officially 6 weeks sober today!!! All praise be to God for this free gift of sobriety! My last night drinking was Thursday April 2, the day before Good Friday. I faced conviction which is a beautiful thing… it challenges you to look deeper…. And I understood how terrible what I was doing to myself and my family who loved me. I realized how a man DIED for what I’m consistently doing, my sin. I just want to say it IS possible, and EACH DAY you try means everything. I’ve also been to AA for 2 months and I can tell you…. The peace, understanding, compassion and empathy I feel from these people surpassed every expectation I had! Today I sit here writing how grateful I am, and I’m hoping you can take away even the smallest glimpse of hope from this! Take care my friends!
