I made a new friend today....
I am so excited....I made a new friend today. She reminded me a lot of myself before I began drinking. She had my same happy go lucky bubbly attitude. Her zest for life was contagious. I had to take a double take....cause this new friend I made today was my sober self staring back at me in the mirror while I was brushing my teeth. I will remember this day each and every time I feel like I want to drink....and remember my friend, ME!"Sometimes the strongest people are the ones who love beyond all faults, cry behind closed doors and fight battles that nobody knows about".

I couldn't agree more with what Hippyman said! I don't have nearly as much knowledge as other folks here do, what I can tell you is that it is the people here that inspire me and that help keep me strong and committed to my sobriety.

I have been doing a ton of soul searching and and trying to figure out what, when, where, why and how I began drinking the way I was....mind you I have had my slip ups, it is all starting to make sense to me. None of it matters now but it does if that makes sense. I truly BELEAVE that we are all put on this earth for a reason and we are exactly where we are meant to be at that moment in time.....but we all have a CHOICE, and where we are at any given moment in time and the choice we make at that very moment can drastically change our path in life. My past is my past....I DON'T LIVE THERE ANYMORE! I have faith that one day you will wake up, and look in the mirror and find a new friend! Read Hippymans response.....it is so true!"Sometimes the strongest people are the ones who love beyond all faults, cry behind closed doors and fight battles that nobody knows about".
