    Six months of freedom

    MOW. First off, may I say that I love that your initials are almost MOM and almost WOW.

    What a lovely combination!!!

    Secondly, can I say that although I'm sure you had no intention to, you have helped me come to a very startling realization that has brought me some immeasurable peace?

    I won't pull a thread-coup and spill my guts here all over your beautiful and moving post, but wanted you to know that you sparked something major for me, and wanted to say thanks.

    And many many congratulations to you on your wonderful accomplishment, although I can see by your post that you didn't need us to say these things to you, your daily life is your reward at this point.

    BRAVO.

                    Sobriety has become like a "thing" - an entity or something, in that it's something I've worked for, earned, and own. Like if I owned a house - it would be mine and I'd appreciate and remember all that I did to work toward attaining it. And I would take good care of it, respect it, honor it - that's how I feel about my sobriety. It's weird - I didn't know it would be like this.

                          If you're still struggling, don't give up. It took me about 4 years from the time I truly admitted to myself that I had a problem to get to this day. It is so very worth all the toil!
