Hello friends today is 9 months sober. I just back from my vacation from palm spring California. I am in tears, every time I hit a milestone date like 9 months sober I get emotional. I never thought I would ever get this far. This is the longest I’ve been sober in 10 years. I am so grateful for life and for living with a clean mind.
Today I will celebrate with a wonderful dinner with someone very special. On my vacation, I went to a club and dance the night away, I did not having a craving. This year I will be thirty and so happy that I was able to have that spiritual Awakening before I hit the big 30. I saw a bunch of my family when I was back home, now that I am clean I now see the love that surrounds me. When I was using I was blind and thought it was me against the world but the reality was the world was on my side even when I did not believe. I had so much love and support. I feel it now with every part of my skin and soul. It sometimes gets hard leaving the ones I love, life goes fast and grandparents get older. I want to spend as much time with my loved ones, and get to know them better-becoming friend’s as well as family.
Life will get tough at some points in my recovery but having a clean mind so I can make the next right move is all I need. Lately I’ve been very chill and sometimes that can lead to me being complacent with my bank account, work and my writing but I need to push myself more and take sober is the new black to the next level. Not sure with what that level is but I have some great ideas. I am in the process of making some T-Shirts with the sober is the new black logo and in the process of being finished with my book
So today all I feel is joy and nothing can take that away especially if I create that from within myself. Sober is the new Black
Some Led Zeppelin for 9 months sober is the perfect tune for today. I hope you Enjoy.
